arrived in the am. would not have gone out on a weekend, but i wanted to do another round of canning on the pinks. took me a bit to bet my drift down, but got my four. the fishing was not red hot. but it was fairly consistent. all four of mine were hens. lots of sea lice on the fish. i was fishing around the toyota dealer ship. dont matter when pinks run....one place is as good as another..saw two silvers taken. so. my four pinks and a silver i had in the fridge, made 14 pints. canning is easy. more should take advantage, of this fishery, to can up a bunch of cheap sandwich makings.

I would disagree with the "one place is as good as another"...they hold in certain areas. They will swim fast through certain parts, and slow down in others. If there is tons of pressure in one area, they will bolt through there, then slow down when the river gets wider and slower, and less pressure. Also, contour of the river effects how they run, etc.

There are little tricks to the spots...I've talked to some good guys out on the river who have been kind enough to teach me some inside tips.
