I just hope the springers show! I didn't get to bonk one last year, hoping to make up for it this year. Too far off to worry about the fall kings right now.
Fish hard, hunt harder!

The best part will be that getting your coho may not be as hard as last year.  We usually would just quit fishing after catching our kings.  At least this year you will be able to get coho to go with your limit of kings.

Heard rumor of a 3 fish limit.  That will make the drive that much better.  I can't wait.  Gonna be frigging epic this season.

so thats means they will shorten the season and drop the limits, awesome  :tup:  :chuckle:
+1, the "emergency closure" will happen right when it starts getting good.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Fish it early and often (I will be) because it will shut down before the end of August if it is as good as they say!
