King fishing has been tough..........




on some days.



On some, not so much. I've hit it almost every day since it opened up northwest of here on the first of July, had some awesome days at the beginning, some tough ones with skunkers in bewtween, incuding 3 without a bite. A few where we lost fish or had natives but nothing to bring home. Most the time though, ya can't complain. And sometimes it's been pretty darn awesome.

Here's and example with some Pics.













































Good times. Good fights, good eats. Tim, Mike, Tom, Tammy, amongst others you see here are enjoying the run this year. A couple banner days mixed in with the average days makes you forget about the days out there that are tough. Ace-Hi all the way.
