We went to 28th Street yesterday morning. Never fished that particular area before, so it was something new. Put in about 8AM, & on the first let-out, before it got all the way out, something was funny. Put the engage lever on & 2 cranks, the bottom started jerking. 20 seconds later the mainline broke. The guy's rod it was on was a little light & the mainline was also light, but he wanted to try it. Do not know if the mainline had a spot in it or the knot was not properly tied.

Did not get a bump the rest of the day. However at about 11:30 after tide change near the concrete docks upstream of the airport, there was a bite on. Saw a 22#er caught, & a larger one lost. It started thunder & lightning & a cloudburst about 2:30 & many of us headed for the barn.

Did not ask the checker the status, as it was RAINING, but the boat behind us had 2.

There was a guy selling (fresh herring) at the dock in the morning. However if you want ones without bloodshot eyes & gill covers, you might look elsewhere.

Talked to a salesman at Sunbirds this afternoon & he says with the river raised a couple of feet, the Chinook are already over Rainbow Falls near PeEll.
