UPSmallie Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Had one of the best mornings spent fishing in my life. A friend of mine from church took me out to the local powerhouse chucking wire flies beneath bobbers and it was a blast! In 5 hours we hooked probably 27 fish and landed about 20 of them. Roughly 6 steelhead ranging from 12-18 inches, 9 whitefish ranging from 10-17 inches, 1 dink Atlantic Salmon, and 4 brute Atlantic Salmon in the 20-26 inch range. This guy has these fish dialed in! We threw all fish back besides two whitefish and my first true Atlantic pictured below. This guy weighed just over 6 lbs and measured 25 inches. Literally took 15 minutes to land this beast! Can't thank that guy enough for an unforgettable experience. Will definitely be back for more bobber take-downs in the near future. 15 Quote

I have a son who is 27 a step son 24, and a step daughter, who is having the baby is 28. It's going to be a boy. I'm fortunate I still have hair on my head. My brother who is 4 years older than I is bald. If I let my beard grow, it comes in grey. 4 Quote

Very few guys around here night fish, afraid of the Sasquatches and such. Most of them get cranky if I set the tournament end times more than about 30 minutes past sunset. 1 Quote

Super User Jigfishn10 Posted July 12, 2017 Super User Posted July 12, 2017 I haven't caught a cutthroat since the late 90's out in Colorado and I can assure you they weren't that big. A beauty for sure @Dorado. 1 Quote

I would be one of those guys. Maybe it would be different if I had the right equipment for night fishing, but even though I was able to connect with a 3.5lb smallmouth on a deep crank at 11pm, it was the first time fishing that I came away thinking "this is not for me". And I'll gladly fish in some crazy weather/conditions. 2 Quote
