Started out on the upper Skagit on Monday Oct 10th fishing with one of Robbo's old buddy's John and it was a GREAT day as it always is with a nice limit of bright coho to 14 pounds! SWEET I rested on Tuesday morning as it was raining quite nicely up here in Stanwood and I went down late afternoon to the Stilly for a great coho show as the rise really put those fish on the move! I gave it a rest Wednesday and returned on Thursday to try my luck with about zero visibility but as luck would have it with the right jig combo I touched 2 dandy silvers but you know the silver story> LDR........ Oh well.... Persistence and patience are my trademark and it has always paid off handsomely as I returned today and even in pretty poor conditions with that old cerise jig with a Silver Horde UV clear skirt hooked and landed a dandy coho that was 35" long and had a girth of 21" Doesn't get any better than that and all within the first 30 minutes of fishing!
