We ended up going 1-4. 2 were hooked on spoons, one on a jig and one on a worm. Darrington to the 530 bridge was a really easy float if anyone was wondering. Good times.

You put in by the mill, at the bridge on the road to Sauk Prarie?

Any recent reports? I’m thinking about floating again on Saturday.

There's fish around. The big blowout yesterday never materialized, it will be prime on Saturday. I might see you there.

Today, one average 10# buck and one small 5-6# hen. What she lacked in size she made up for in enthusiasm.

LOTS of boats. We were 1st boat in, 2nd boat heading downstream, and got passed by 12 boats in the first 2 hours. We did a short float and sat back and let them roll by.
