Hey, Salmo, 3 days in a row on the river....good for you, I lost that patience on the Skagit years ago. Glad you got a fish. I hit it all day on Sunday for the first time in ? and only saw Mr. Whitey. Not sure I've ever caught a whitefish on the mainstem ever, but he hit the biggest fly in the box. Confident my new spey line/sink tip was getting down. Excited for the extended opportunity. Saw a lot of people. Have a good pic of the whitey with a 6" fly in it's mouth, but can't remember how to post pics here. Thanks for the report,Tom
