WA fish??
« on: October 01, 2007, 10:35:40 PM »
Hey guys,

Im a total virgin to WA fishing... I was crossing a creek today... 10-15 foot wide... shin deep and a 3 foot brownish fishing cruised right by at 2 yards.

It was big and made me wonder why I was hunting instead of fishing...lol

what was it? Steelhead? :dunno:

Hey, how is the fly fishing in the Yakima River right now?

Thanks

If it was 3 feet long this time of year was probabally a chinook, Lucky you didn't loose a leg. :o :o

Holy crap! Where the heck did I move to, when you can't park your truck without something happening to it to participate in outdoor recreation.  Don't these morons realize a fair number of folks are "hopefully" packing some type of firearm.  I just got my conceal permit for this state, didn't need it before, was legal all the time as an officer.  .45 cal Kimber handles really nicely...
