Spoons or a hoochie skirt around here.
Some big fish coming in too. The mid 40's with more than a couple topping 50.
How about this thing, found beneath the Coleman hatchery:o

The coleman Hatchery is the only federally ran hatchery here in California. What ever they're doing, they are doing it better than all the other state ran hatcheries. We get allot of 4&5 year salmon up there:hump:

On a normal year, we would be nailing the shit out of them already, and they would still be relatively dime bright with that salmon colored meat. This year fucking blows up on the rivers. And yet there's a plethora of fish waiting to come up.:cuss:

I've been!
Dude, what's fucked up, is you can practically walk across them up at the feather river hatchery. So many have already blown up through, but hard to catch when they shoot up that fast.
But try try try is what I do. And then cry cry cry. Lol :-D
I'm hittin the feather in about a 1/2 hour;-) just got done with the gardening.
I might do redbluff tomorrow.

went fill the feeders, brushed 2 blinds, cut grass, and seeded a food plot at the camp yesterday. I brought 25 minnows with me. the bass bite was on.
caught 10 . this was the biggest of the day I landed. all were released, no fouls
ten point and a six point still hanging around.
and I am ate the fcuk up with chigger bites, I had my thermal cell on..not a skeeter bite, but I didn't dust myself off with sulfa power, didn't wear boots 124.JPG . I know better.

I use a diabetic syringe, draw a cc of air and inject it into the worm. it swells up and makes it float. you have to use a small hook, I use a number 10 bream hook. if use a bass hook it wont let the worm float. I put a split shot weight about a foot above the hook. the weight drags bottom but the worm floats...fish it slow.
