Snoqualmie with Spey

[Shakes]

Hit the Snoqualmie with "Speyrod" this morning. The Tolt is still running muddy, so we had to look to other runs. We hit a bar upriver with no luck, and a couple of spots down river with the same result. I did manage to hook a sucker in the tail. Made for a better fight, but still couldn't take line out on the 9wt spey. x( The water was rising a bit, and started to carry more color by the end of the day. Will be interesting to see what all this rain will do.:beathead

What is it with spey rods and suckers? (sounds like some kind of bad joke...)
But seriously, I've seen 3 guys snag suckers on the snoqualmie this year.

Were you using a traditional spey fly or a weighted (chain or barbell eye) fly? Sink tip, floater, or full sinking line?

Shakes, it's SPEYCAST, SPEYCAST ....SPEY...CAST. Repeat after me...SPEYCAST! :beathead LOL

SPEYCAST or is speyrod???

Spey what??????
It's all the same isn't it. What is the name of the guy at the shop again? How have I made it this far in life is beyond me. I guess I should just keep fishing.

As far as the suckers go, that was my second for the year on the snoqualmie. Using a sink tip with and without weighted fly. Just my mojo. At least my hands smell like fish, huh Speyrod, I mean Speycast.:rofl
