Wife and went east and fished the upper Cle Elum. Man, there is just not water over there. ent above Salmon la Sac. Fished dries for what were mostly small Redbands. Got a few, missed a lot. Last place we fished was just upstream from the reservoir. Did a lot of enjoyable casting, got nice drifts, just no fish. We we told "You should have been here last time." Nice day on the water.

I was really hoping that there would be enough dumb fish that one would hook itself while used my late Dad's bamboo rod. No such luck. One hit. But I did get to do a lot of casting with it in prepation for ext time.
