Hey Eric, I'd probably know you if I saw you, especially if you work the rivers off the Chehalis. Yeah, I'd agree with you about the Cow and such. I myself will hit other rivers which I don't plan on saying on here (some are rivers people claim have no fish). I'm sure in time someone will catch something there and it'll hit the paper and it'll be ruined also, but I'll enjoy it while it still lasts. I like the Nooch though, my Dad has a cabin on it and it's nice to float something you're very familiar with. I guess I'll start hitting the Hoh and those remote rivers again. Alot of people won't fish it for a day trip, so I'll have to make other arrangements like Eric. It's just sad to see a river as small as the Nooch loaded with so many boats. I know I don't own the river, but it seems so many run to where it's "hot" to fish instead of familiarizing themselves with one river and hitting it hard. At least I have the knowledge on most of those south Olympic and Western Olympic rivers to run where I need to if I have to. Oh well, just venting some more.
