just got back from fishing and no fish again, i ussually do real good on the skook but not this year, i dont know if there is any fish or not. i spoke to the guard at the damn and he had only ssen a few fish being carried out all year. i hope the other guys are doing better then me.

I fished the mouth of the skook a couple weeks ago and it seemed to be pretty hot. We hooked 1 in a 2 hour period but I saw 4 or 5 caught in that same 2 hour period. This rain were having may bring em in,  hopefully!! Keep tryen they should be there.

It has definately been slow. A fish here and there really .  Im surprised they havent shut it down again this year .

i drove up to the dam yesterday because i was in the area.  kind of sad, watching a whole bunch of guys fishing in the mud puddles up that way.  there weren't any cars parked before the cable crossing, so i decided to take a walk down to the big claybank hole in the fields.  i was heading past the corner above it and spotted 2 guys at about 1/4 mile away, they see me and start jogging towards me!  i get down to the spot, set up my rod and have time to make one cast before these *censored*s pop out of the bushes and set up 10 feet downriver of me.

i got the hell out of there, wasn't worth getting in a fight in that mudhole.

Thats too bad, it was a pretty good run a few years ago.

it was, i didn't really fish it until '99 or so, but even 4 or 5 years ago you could go down there on a weekday and not see more than a handful of people fishing.

Hit it up yesterday and it was pretty calm. Only a few guys fishing but mostly keeping to themselves. Saw two roll but came home empty handed. That's ok though got the line wet and spent some time to myself. Nice day for being on the water.
