went yesterday...hooked 9 landed 6. also caught a 8lb steelie. plenty of boats up there. What is awesome to see is all the kids up there "hogging" in sockeye. great to see people taking their kids and getting them into the action. Saw a little boy fighting a fish, he could barely see over the side of the boat.  :IBCOOL:

Very true woody.  6-9 is a hell of an average compared to 6-35+ the day before for the two youngsters in my boat!  Between rebaiting hooks and swapping out leaders, I didn't even have time for a cold one. :chuckle:

What are you guys catching them with?  My buddy bought a new boat and we are thinking about going this weekend but we have never fished for sockeyes.

Dang - nice fish! Makes me jealous! Never fished up in that part of the Columbia before but would like to head up there. I was fishing for Kings in Area 7 (San Juans) this last weekend and got skunked. My 9yo hooked a 3ft dogfish (or shark of some sort) and I got a little ling mooching up 10' from the bottom - but no 'nookies... :'( We did get about 30 plus pounds of crab though! Freaking 38 nice Dungy's and about a dozen good sized Red Rocks in all!  :IBCOOL:
I aint superstitious - cuz its bad luck!
