    I remember catching a 9lb fish in the river just upstream from the mouth fishing with the old man. I would have been 10 or 11. Quite a good hole with 4 or 5 others fishing there. Buggers just laughed when I landed the fish.

    These boys don't know what pressured fish look like!!! Spring Chinook seem to bring the entire population of the northwestern US out the the Columbia...or at least 50,000 of em or so.
    I'll be fishing the mud on the Snake for the next two days...gotta fish my favorite spot before I leave this land
