When we pulled out Sat at 11:00 the fish checker told me with our fish he had 6 chinook & 7 coho for 17 boats & there were alot of boats still out. Sounds to me like the paper is getting some bad info.

overall, unless you own a place on a killer drift on the cowlitz, the bank fishing has sucked for nearly 10 years. pitching 3oz of lead with 10 feet of leader into 20mph fastwater and ripping on every cast ain't fishing.
