Those silvers a perfect size for the BBQ, if not too wormy.

I hope to get out there this weekend if I don't go for Kokes.

They previously had been fishing up river toward the Cowlitz Falls dam, and doing well. They've been out 4-5 times in the past month, and getting fish everytime.

Post by: Alchase on April 18, 2014, 03:06:51 PM: My son and I hit Riffe on Saturday.
We pulled into mossy rock park at 7:00 am, only one trailer in the parking area. We did not see another boat until 10:00 when we headed in with our limits averaging around 12 inches. It was a beautiful day out on the water.

On my way back to puyallup I somehow picked up a nasty bouton pneumonia and by early Sunday I was in ICU at Good SAMs.
They work me up at 3:00 am to move me out of ICU this morning, and one the th move helpers accidentally grabbed my PICK IV. So instead of going home finally, I get a minimum of three more days and a round of cumadin to get rid of a blood clot where the PICK was.

If you have the time go out and. Arch some fish and maybe throw a prayer my way👍

Look at it this way- if you can survive pneumonia AND the Good Sam ER, you can probably survive darn near anything :tup:
