I was called by port alberni newspaper yesterday, Check news today and another paper from PA today all of whom contacted me and I told them I was not there and only compiled the information and reiterated the info from my blog, they asked me for some quotes and I gave them quotes. 2 minute phone conversations, now I'm being quoted in the times colonist saying i was there? I just want everyone to know that I wasn't there and I was misquoted. End of story.

Fished the gun range for a couple hours this afternoon. Lost one that could have been 15 pounds, landed 1 around 6 pounds. The water is looking good.

Nine yesterday. Landed that is
That last huge freshet really scattered them throughout the system. Tough to dig them out for a few days following. Seems they starting to re-group lately though. The 9 I refer to were taken amongst 3 rods, and a LOT of water covered, on foot.
Cheers,
Nog

yes ,today....does anyone ever get up and ''feel'' that its going to be a good day today?...well thats how I felt this morning..and what a day!, I ( the nooby) played guide to a very good friend of mine who has been Steelheading almost as long as I've been alive,and who also got me into this Steelheading thing,I had a good feeling about a spot that I had scouted a while ago and it turned out to be a good one, we hooked 8 and landed 5,(4 hatchery, 1 wild),kept one each for eating,...
and sorry, all I can tell you about where we were, is that we were not useing bait,and no we were not at the falls pool....
water is very clear,and has dropped since I was here last week,
we found the smaller the offering the better for us today,
