So I invited my buddy kelvin up from federal way to fish with me on the snohomish he got to my house around 615 am. He loaded his rod and rain jacket, and vest so off we went to the river. Got to the river around 7 ish put the boat in and off we went. There were a few boats ahead of us mostly guides. I wasn't to worried about getting a spot because they were nut to butt at the top of crab bar. There were also 15 guys standing in the middle of the river just below the boats. I was in shock because that many guys crossed the river in the dark. My buddy got the first coho within his first couple of cast on a spinner. I started with free drifting eggs and fished that way for a while before I started to put fish in the boat. I hooked and landed the next 5 fish, as we joked and laughed, the skies opened up and buckets of rain fell on us. I had to use the bilge pump twice to drain the pool in my sled. We head to the launch to clean fish. We headed to the Pilchuck for a bacon burger and fries with fry sauce.
