The Turn & Burn
I woke up at 0230 Saturday, as I laid there for the next 20min the Gorge light came on and I then knew I was not going back to sleep. I reached over for my phone to check wind conditions for the Gorge turning out to be a favorable window of opportunity before the fan kicks in for that up coming afternoon. I tapped the wife and got that groaning "WHAT", I'm going to the Gorge. By 0430 I had things loaded, my little companion who knew something was going on he wanted to be a part of it. We hit both were on our adventure that has always been known to me as a turn & burn. By 0800 we were on our happy fishing waters. SuperD, Kokaholic, and another good friend were in one boat in search of silver bullets at the Buckboard end & I was at the south end of the pipe where I found a couple of schools. I caught 4 on the day but 1 self released at the net and another was just out of dink stages so I released it to grow more. I did keep 2 in the box. Around noon the FAN had turned on. My April visit is now history.
