Steelhead trip at Forks
« on: February 26, 2017, 11:40:10 PM »
My friend and I floated a river in the Forks area over the weekend and fishing was slow for us. 0 for 2 for the weekend. This was the highlight of the day for me.

A sex stone !  I was told when i was younger that if caressed properly and released back into the wild you would gain its rock hard powers. ;) nice catch !

I thought you weren't supposed to pull Natives out of the water?
