Friday I fished between HWY 522 and confluence of the Sky.
Spotted decent numbers of "bright" rollers and splashers, and a flotilla of sleds, prams and rafts of various sizes, some drifting, some trolling and others anchored.
The four hours of time spent on the water I witnessed one bright 15 to 20 lb. silver boated. I tossed everything I thought would entice, including a popper, with no takes..
Saturday I told my brother the news that I found the "missing coho".
After the 3 mile "heart walk" downtown with my wife and a hearty breakfast, I called him up, he drove over to the house, and we headed to the river.
Saturday's flotilla was suprisingly smaller and the fishing technique different.
Instead of watching the repeating parade, everyone was anchored up and casting about.
Again my brother and I threw everything at them to no avail, and it was quite frustrating to watch a bright one splash 20 to 30 feet in front of you right after drifting through the spot as if they were mocking you
.
And for the time we spent there fishing, it looked as if the bank anglers, most of them tossing gear, had much more success than the boaters...
