Title: Where is everyone running this Memorial day?
Post by: cohoho on May 22, 2011, 08:13:33 PM
Myself- looking like running south to go after a few OS Sturgeon...  Will be down around Washougal Sat and Sun if anyone is out and about.  Obviously depending upon if the water subsides a bit...  I NEED SHAD if anyone has any, trade for sinkers or something...

I have been looking at the weather and water levels at the different rivers.   Looks like fishing on the rivers might be a challange.

It might be high but alot of good areas out of the current that will hold the fish...

You should come up and fish the halibut derby here in PA, top prize is $5000 and I think there are slots for 30 money fish !!!

I'm headed to my cabin. 4 days of just doing what I want. I have and old deer blind I'm going to enclose with cedar fencing boards....They are cheap and will fit right in. I also have a small 2-3 year old bear over there that I wouldn't mind seeing gone but I don't have a tag........North GMU 111 . :rolleyes: I will be there fri.-sun. W-H members welcome to swing in and B.S.,........and if you have a bear tag......who knows maybe we could help each other out.  :chuckle:



Sorry, I just noticed it was in fishing. :chuckle: But that's what I'm doing. :chuckle: Ok.....I might fish the river.    Big Rainbow and no crowds.

Our plan is to run on over to Spokane for the state "A" high school fastpitch tourney, and then to Coeur D'Alene Lake to get the cabin/docks ready for the summer and do a little fishing. 

That is....if I don't have to work.

Heading to the Outer banks (NC) tonight for a weekend of blue water spear fishing. If the weather holds and the gulf stream stays pushed in it should be good. 2 days of freedive and 2 days of scuba. Not sure what to excpect as far as species and size goes but.....it should be interesting to say the least.
