What a great Christmas!!
I was sitting at work yesterday checking out gamefishin and I saw that FASTFISH had an open seat fishing the Cowlitz today. I couldn’t resist, I sent him a PM and we confirmed the plans.
dapackwood also took him up on the open seat offer so we decided to meet in Federal Watts and carpool down to the Cowlitz (thanks for driving!). We got to the blue creek launch thirty minutes before the sun came up. One person at the launch glow balling had a few fish on the bank; it was going to be a good day.
We got the boat in and started pounding the water. Within an hour I hooked up with a solid fish. Not wanting to cracker the first fish I took it easy on her and eventually won the tug of war.
Nice, cold morning on the river. A few other boats out but it didn’t seem too bad.
Next up, dapackwood hooks into a fish with some ez-eggs. After a brief battle FASTFISH slides the net under this nice hen.
Now we’ve got two fish in the boat and it’s still fairly early. After talking a little smack FASTFISH hooks into a nice fish and dapackwood takes the tiller. Nice fight and another fish in the boat.
The bite died for a while so we decided that we were going to make one last drift. FASTFISH knows how to end the day on a good note, hooks into another fish. I netted this colored buck and it was 4 fish for the day.
Great day on the water, thanks for the ride FASTFISH. dapackwood, it was great to meet you and kill a few fish. I had an absolute blast fishing with you guys. Tup:
