Title: Almost that time of Year.
Post by: Firstlight on November 13, 2008, 08:54:22 AM: Really starting to itch for some winter metalhead action. My B.C. trip kinda got canceled this year so im gettin real anxious. I normally hit the Skagit for Hachery Heads, but really cant wait for the Veddar R. to get fired off. :drool: I would love to see a few good Metalhead pics posted to get everyone fired up...... ;)

Awesome when you can catch Kings, silvers and Steelies all the same day.

Weahter was awesome as was the clamming.

Post by: Intruder on December 08, 2008, 04:37:43 PM: You guys need to start flickin flys at those Thompson brutes. Nothin like the drug of the tug :chuckle:

You'll really know you're in a for a battle when an 18 pounder comes up and sips your bomber off the surface down in the lower part of the Orchard run and heads for the fast water below. I've literally saw a guy get spooled in there back in the early 90s. I'll see if I can find any good photos of my BC adventures. Unfortunately not too many of my good steely photos are digital.
