Never fished it, never visited it, nor will I.

I'd rather chop off my fingers that deal with that garbage and the likes.

"combat" isn't what I'd use to describe the NFL in July.

I'd use the words "Goat Rodeo".

Wooooooohooooooo!!! My first winter steel trip tomorrow morning. I can't wait. Just got finished tying up thirty 8-inch leaders and got em rolled up in my Pips. Going to my fav zipper-lip hole on the upper-Snoq. brats stack up here like no other spot on the river.

Parker one day I'll take you to "The Crick," #856 on your card. Brats from this "pristine" little stream eat just as good as those from 398, 561 or 615.

P.S. leave the UEC at home, straight yarn works much, much better here.

..........I heard fishin' been so bad down at BC that they're thinking of bussing the "boys" up to the "Crick" for some action. Should get interesting with a hundred 2 oz cannonballs and 9 foot leaders pounding a 2 foot wide rivulet. But then again it just might flush out them flaming float fishermen like it did down yonder........Hey that's MY ROCK!

Sorry, Post Traumatic Fishing Syndrome.
I promise it won't happen again.

With the rivers the way they are, and with Blue Creek being so crowded and with slow fishing, I'm surprised half a dozen idiots haven't exercised their right to run a jet sled up Tokul Creek so they could side drift under the bridge and in front of the hatchery creek.

Don't tell them they can't, or they'll accuse you of trying to own the whole damn river!

Fish on...

If they ask, be sure to tell them to use the upper Snoqualmie put in.

Was at Tokul this morning after trying the main river at Fall City. Watched the game warden (think it was Chandler) latch on to two guys who had been fishing under the bridge. They moved down to the mouth where one of them caught a fish. I saw the warden haul them both up over the bank with the fish. Another fisherman nearby told me that neither of the guys had licenses. Expensive fish.....

I fished it (Tokul) twice this week and did real well. I hate the crowds too, hadn't fished it in years, but what are ya gonna do when you just need to fish. I couldn't wait any longer to get my river fix, and I'm glad I did. Just slide down the bank on the main river, downstream from the crowds, and it's less of a madhouse than the bank below the Bogey hatchery.

Homer, If a guy spent two full days at that crap hole, he could probably have enough video footage to make another "Jackass" movie... Pretty sad place

Bank W. That's funny. I actually had that idea while I was there. I actually spent more time people watching than fishing. It is a crazy scene. Next time, the video is coming with me.

No doubt. It's worth the price of admission to watch some of the antics. I heard the other day the wardens hauled some guy off to jail for not recording his fish. Must have been more to the story though, I can't see them takin' a feller off to the grey bar hotel just for not recording a lousey fish. Last year I saw a guy wading out in the middle of the creek with shorts on!! More cahoneys than I have!!!

wow i hate to say it to all you. but shut up. its fishing, and thats what matters. you say its the only game in town sence the rivers are high. well if its as bad as everyone says they why even talk about it. i fish tokul at least 4 times a week. its not any different then sitting on any other river banks casting for fish. fishing is fishing. and unlike most places with that many people. we have a good group of guys that fish up there. its the nonlocal guys that talk bad about the fishing there that give us the problems.

that being said, it does get to be quite the joke when there are no other places to fish. having a bunch of guys up there that don;t know how to fish that type of water. do all us "FLOSSERS" a favor and just stay home if its so bad up there.

and yeah go ahead and flame on if you want. i can take it. i've the crouds on every river. i'm sure i've heard it all. \:\)

Ok. I'm game. Just say when (but not a weekend, please).

No UEC, but can I bring the sand shrimp and the pearl pink corkies? Or, am I out of my league here?

I don't think you deserve a flame party there runabait, and when I first posted this, I surely didn't mean to step on anybody's boots just because they fish on Tokul Creek. It was just an observation of mine and a statement that I couldn't enjoy that type of fishing. It's a pretty exciting place when the fish are in and everybody is catching them. I also know that most of the regulars that fish the creek help to keep some sort of order by brow beating the snaggers and those who don't obey the rules. If that kind of fishing gets your blood pumping, more power to you. You do need to get more sleep though.......jeesch....posting at 1AM....
