    In the high Spring flow (9,000 cfs) they could be from Nimbus dam downstream to the mouth.

    Got into double digits this morning before the bobber guys showed up. When they did the bite went dead. I think the bobbers make too much noise (Aron calls them grenades). All were caught on the Firecracker except for one on the Maria. I was using a Type 3 sink tip because the Type 6 was hanging up on the bottom.

    Sounds like the action wasn't QUITE as explosive as it should have been... considering the; GRENADES, FIRECRACKERS, BOMBERS AND BLOODY MARIAS... Glad you got some JEFF

    Jeff, do you have a photo and recipe for the firecracker you would be willing to share? Size you have been tying and having success with as well? Thanks in advance for your time and consideration!
