Got up this morning and looked outside and said to myself do I really want to do this. Poured rain all the way to the Carbody Hole said to myself do I really want to do this. Walked in to the river and started a the head of the run and worked my way down in the rain drifting a 50/50 Dick Nite on a 3' leader with Sand Shrimp gel just enough weight to keep it close to the bottom. Caught 2 12" Cutthroat and a Carp. Then about half way down the run the rain quit and the sun tried to come out then Mr. Steelhead came calling nice 5 min. fight hatchery fish bonked on the head 33" long 16" girth just a little rose on the cheek. Heard of 2 other fish caught between the Car Body Hole and Hwy. 18

Glad I went!

I was planning fishing the green today with cmessling... We didn't. That was my last chance to catch some western washington steel as I am heading back to WSU tommorow morning. Good work on the fish and good work making me regret not heading out!

Did you really want to do it?

Great day of fishing. I will be hitting the green a few times in the next couple weeks.

Thanks so much for your report, it is encouraging. I pounded the lower river from the soccer fields to the golf course and saw nothing and had not a hit. This was on Friday. Will be looking again this week I hope.
