Attached is an alert from WDFW regarding yesterday's cougar attack on the Kalama River.

Thankfully, nobody was injured. The cat bolted but they're trying to track it down. The angler was hiking out with a 25lb springer on his packframe. It doesn't say where, but my guess is he was up in the canyon. That seems like cougar country to me.

The cat was probably having as much luck with spring Chinook fishing as I am. So he tried another method. I'll stick to drifting eggs.........
