Like your style Drifter, to the point non sugar coated. Trouble is, any more, less productive places to fish with twice the pressure. For some reason salmon in rivers/streams bring out the worst in people. Really makes one that has fished for a long time maybe think if it's really worth it any more. Thought I would never say that, but I have got my salmon for the year and now fly fishing East all catch and release. What sucks is having to travel so far for success and solitutde.
