Sisco Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Ice out finally happened last night! The public landing was open as of noon, So I launched at 1:30.A nasty east wind came up an hour later, but I did pick up a small coho and a skinny 22 inch Brown. Whatever, fish for dinner!

98Z5V Posted May 11, 2018 Report Posted May 11, 2018 That's pretty damn cool. I miss fishing, grew up doing it as a kid, and fished in Washington. Haven't been fishing since 2004.

My aunt and I did the boat tour on saguaro lake there were guys fishing below the dam? Get out and fish damnit!!
sketch Posted May 11, 2018 Report Posted May 11, 2018 i caught my only brown several years ago. it was a whopper for the stream it was caught in and it was so brown i had to check the regs pic to see if it was legal. Thats not a racist joke its a real fishing trip! and never happened again since the fire and the shut down of the river.. catch and release.

Some have some really beautiful markings.

Haven't been fishing since 2004. Thats what I do to relax, fish or shoot. Just resigned all my officer and advisory positions in sporting organizations and government commissions. They were taking up so much time I didn’t have time to do either, and really wasn’t accomplishing any thing. I am supposed to be retired, what am I doing all this stuff for??
Sisco Posted May 11, 2018 Author Report Posted May 11, 2018 (edited) Went out today for four hours. Got four coho and a bit bigger brown trout. Good season so far.? Water temperature was 33.4 F yesterday and today. Had to break skim ice with the hull of the boat for the first quarter mile until we hit open water today. Edited May 11, 2018 by Sisco
