mr seaweedsam, If i drove 100-150 miles to this great fishing hole full of all this hassle, i think i would go buy a map and find a stream alot less traveled, there is alot of water in the great state of washington and i'm sure you could find your own little utopia. secondly , i have caught alot of fish with our 2 beagles in our boat, pulling plugs not washing hands all day, etc face the facts ,, fish are fickle . some days you catch,
somedays you watch the water go by.
