It is very easy to get to the "Zipperlip". You simply have to wake up at 3:00 a.m. in order to prepare. First, you must be aware of the foliage in the area to insure that you apply the correct type of face camo for your excursion. This enables you to blend in to the river bank, should a intruder arrive.
The trip takes about an hour by car (@ 55mph) from Milwaukee, Seattle, Anchorage, Sacramento, Grand Rapids, Oswego, Silver Bay, and Sault Ste Maire. You have to turn east (right or left) on the south lane of the west bound highway. Take the 3rd exit, which is not marked, but distinguished by the refuse from where the semi hauling disposable diapers turned over 3 yrs ago. You take a left or right on the first gravel road. The road is inundated with potholes, so you always fish from the bank, or an inflatable raft. The raft is a hinderence, as you can only be picked up on the ocean, or Great Lakes.
It's a really long river, whose length is very short. The very best drift is the third bend in the river from the put in point. It is very difficult to distinguish, as the river has no bends in it. The hole just above the tailout is very shallow for being 12 feet deep. The second best hole is surrounded by 90 foot sheer cliffs that contain the remnants of those who tried to parachute in to the tail out of the hole. Their broken loomis rods, spinners, drift gear, and shredded waders cover the cliffs as far as the eye can see. The only thing remaining is the crusty smiles on their face, as they saw the "cliff hole". You can hear their spirits laughing as you approach the hole. It is much like a native burial ground.
The fish bite all day long, and hit jigs, yarn, nerf football, spinners, spoons, worms, hot shots, okies, corkies, cheaters, and will not touch bait. The fish can't even tell the difference between a Gammy or a Mustad. This is very convenient, as it is about a 9 mile hike in to the river. The neat thing, is that no one else knows about this, so please don't share this with anyone, as the drones will show up in force. Tight lines, and see ya on your Zipper.
