Well I fished the combat fishing zone at the dam yesterday. Fish on everywhere you looked, two, three, four, six at a time. I will say that I have fished in some combat zones before (Blue Creek, Cowlitz Clay Banks, Pt. Defiance) but those places paled in comparison to what we fished in yesterday. The guides were just spanking em'. We saw well over a hundred fish hooked. Some of the private boats were doing well also. I fished with the Gizmo Man and my Dad. Giz was the only one in our boat to hook a fish, a nate that he let my Dad play to the boat (thanks Giz!!!) and was released. To put it in Giz's words we felt pretty humbled by the end of the day. But that's fishing!!!
For me personaly in four trips I caught one nate and one jack. First Springer season on the Columbia for me. If we get to do it again I think I will fair a little bit better. Next up is the Wind River zoo in a few weeks, hope to see some of you there!!!
Good luck and tight lines, Jeff
