Stealhead fishing
« on: July 12, 2010, 11:07:41 PM »
Went out to forks with my uncle to do some fishing over the July 4th weekend.The first couple days we got bites but lost the fish.My uncle landed one on his fly rod.This was my second time fishing so I'm very lucky to have some experienced guys to show me the ropes.On the 4th I made 3 casts and had my limit.

Which rivers are open? We might be heading to Ruby beach, might have to reconcider if the fishing is that good.
Nice looking fish!

We fished the Calawah.Most guys were going back to the parking lot without fish but saw a few or more caught everyday.

Great looking fish.  Hoping I can show some off after this weekend.
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.
