Well the float went well, no one fell in, didn't tip the boat, and saw thousands of Salmon and Steelhead heading up the river. Wasn't real impressed with the water we floated over. Lots of dead deep water that we just rowed over to get down the river. We stopped at my honey hole and I got a flyfishing newbie into a 1/2 pounder. I managed to hang a Salmon in the 20# plus range that I fought for about 15 mkinutes before getting busted off. Got one wild Steelhead around the 6-7 pound range to hand but it didn't want it's photo taken and took off after the fly fell out of it's jaw and slipped through my rowers hands. Hindsight says we should have just drove to my honey hole and fished it all day, but it was nice to see what the water looked like down river. All in all not a bad day, saw lots of fish and the weather was pefect. Until tomorrow.
