You guys keep giving them heck! Springers were a serious addiction for me over a couple decades ago...I'd start fishing them the middle of March, (within sight of the Astoria bridge) and follow them up to Bonneville..then on to the Wenatchee/Icicle..and rinse/repeat for Summers, then Falls. During March in the "low" River, when/if I found concentrations of smelt back then, the springers fishing could be off-da-hook! I'm just not mad at them anymore, nor as tuff I guess? Back then I remember some trips where we'd drive out to the beaches and razor clam at night, then springer fish all day out of Skamokawa. Top it off with a 6-7hr drive home, those were the days! Maybe once I retire, I'll chase them again...
