boat pics
[ Hi. You have your wife join you in the boat huh. Good for you. Mine comes along occasionally, but it is usually for just 3 hours or so. I sort of burned her out up in BC. years ago when I wanted to flyfish from daylite till dark. Live and hopefully learn. Thanks for the info. on the hand held remote. I was leaning that way myself.
It was absolutely gorgeous up at Merwin today. As I said, I am in the bottom of the learning curve when it comes to kokanee fishing. I think I had 3 hits up there, but I'm not sure. There is no guessing when a king hits your lure. But I'm still working on the kokes. I think I was doing things like I was supposed to, but I'm thinking of respooling a couple of my reels with 8# momo for longlining instead of the 30 pound braid I just put on them. I think I was scaring the fish away today, because a guy I talked to said he was using the same stuff I was, only he had 8# momo on his reels and was using about a 1/8th oz. bullet sinker ahead of a glo white dodger followed by about 10 inch leader to a pink hootchie or pink wiggle butt at 100 feet back. I was real close except for the braided line. Even tho the fishin wasn't good, the wearher was fantastic. Even got a sunburn. The fish were showing at 75 feet to 130 feet all over my fish finder, but I had no luck getting any of them to bite. It's too early for them when the're that far down anyway I think. But I did try. I saw 3 herds of elk this morning with about 7-8 big bulls in them. I'll try to post a pic. here of the boat so you can see what I'm in. It's not real fancy, but it is comfortable on nice days like today. Sorry, can't figure out how to do it.
