Sisco Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) The Coho in our bay showed up at the rivermouths two days ago. This year they are a little bigger and a lot meaner than usual. I had two break twenty pound monofilament last night on their initial strike. The first picture is a 26 inch female, about 6 pounds. I won't be on the forum much until the run is over. Edited September 15, 2015 by Sisco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisco Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Yeah I saw that on PP as well. I got this one on an offer I couldn't refuse. 2 years old, 25 hours on it. $20 G. Would cost me $45G now. Kick myself because I passed on a John Deer mid size tractor with 15 hours on the diesel, an earth bucket, and snow blower from the same guy for $15 G! I couldnt afford both. Thats life I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats life I guess.it's insane how much the price of boats has inflated in the past 15 years.

Sisco Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 They kept on talking about the difference between a dry fly and a wet fly and how it altered their presentation. About that time I woke up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
