Saw three other fish landed and two lost.  Of the fish I saw landed one was on a homemade spinner on the bottom, one on Spin N Glow and shrimp, and one bobber and prawn.  Both of the fish lost were on bobber and prawn as well.  I fished from about 7 to 8:30 PM.

Well Huntbear and I went down for a couple of hours today, pretty slow. We got a big fat 0.  Did see two natives hooked up in a boat, 1 hatchery fish in another, and one hatch of the bank.  Maybe better luck next time.

Was a great time.  Meeting another member off here.  Great conversation, but the dang fish would not cooperate.  Heck, one boat could have netted em as they jumped next to their boat, limited out and gone home.   :chuckle: :chuckle:
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.

The bench was filled and then there were two on the other site of the bridge piling.  Huntbear and I were on the other side.

i spent a lot of hours on that bench and all the drama somtimes cracked me up :chuckle: i won't fish there again. we caught some nice fish but its boat or nothing now :chuckle: last guy that showed up down there when there was like 6 of us stood there a minute. looked down the bench walked past 3 people and shoved my tackel box which was on my side off the back into the rocks so he could sit down out of turn almost got a very very bad beating. then there are the guys that show up and want to throw spinner when everone is bait fishing and they drag everyone in on almost every cast :bash:

His dad caught 5 (1 wild 4 keepers) He helped his sons fill his tag for the day.  ;) we fished from 11:30am-4:30pm
They also fished at night (the night befor) and each caught 1. (1 wild 1 keeper)

Just curious what lb leader everyone is using there. Had a guy tell me to use a 4 lb leader and 8-10 main lilne, it made all the difference for me. This guy was one of the regulars in the float tubes and he would flat slaughter them. I was in a boat, not sure how the light leader would work off the bank. He also used a tiny hook not sure the size.

It is still pretty slow at the Big White, and Drano.   I saw about 25 squaw fish caught last night at Drano.  It was hillarious, watching these guys swear they had steelhead on, reel in a 12-14 in. squaw.   :chuckle: :chuckle:

If you are doing the bait thing, go light.  At most 6lb test and at most a #4 hook.
