So, I suck at fishing sometimes, really suck.

I was on the Nisqually 12-19 up river of the campground. Only one other dude fishing and he hooked his second 15+ lb chum shortly after I arrived, nice and chrome! Me? Nothing. For three hours, nothing. I was using the same setup as the guy before me. I fished the whole bank. I even switched to some spoons to mix it up. Nothing. I was about as pissed off fishing as I've ever been. The fish were rolling and jumping right in front of me and the other dude had no problem catching them. I was using scent, Mike's salmon egg gel, maybe that was putting them off instead of attracting them.

To make maters worse I high centered my truck, in the middle of nowhere. After I cleaned out my shorts I somehow managed to free my truck, I really don't know how, one wheel was completely off the ground hanging over the edge of the road. Right after I freed my truck I got a text from a friend who caught steelhead on the Green.

Just one of those days.
