So I will make this short, I am trying to figure out a way to video from my phone while fishing but it does not work too well....



See what I mean. I think I might start using my little whitewater river camera so I can record some of the chummers.

Here is the report.

Hit the green yesterday at around 1:30 I think. Ran into a fellow wa laker. It was dead as a door nail up around 212th. So I took off, Got a bit more work done and then hit it again at 4:30. Like clock work they showed up.

I started with 2 rosey coho, one was more rosey than the other, did not see much chrome, here and there but it did not matter, I was after something else!!! The chum. Oh and they are here dudes and dudettes let the fun begin!!!!

So I put away my silver set and broke into my box of treats for the chum zingers. Chum were running through pretty heavy, I caught and banked 3 with the biggest being at least in that 14-16lb range. I thought about taking a few photos but it was raining and honestly for some reason (although I wish chum would not propagate the whole river like the demon spawn they are) I don't like handling fish more than needed, and it seemed lame to try figure something out while I was holding this large fish in the river which was tired and giving me the idea that he would really prefer to leave....

All in all it was a great night. I could honestly rate it a 5 since it was so much action and since the big boy was so stinkin big, but it was chum after all and those dirty dogs will never get a 5 from me.

Pic of some Chum Jigs that I like, Oh and a steelhead jig I tied up since I am getting ready for the winter runs.

Jim, glad you had good day. Still waiting on my first Chum. Thinking the Steelie jig is the purple and blue one?
Yeah, the video was a bit Blair Witch Project. Thanks for trying though.
