Bogie/Clawah crowded on opening day - 06/18/01 10:00 PM
Ive been gone for a while so havent been on the board for a couple of weeks. I Managed to hit the Bogie and Clawawah on opening day for some summer steel action and boy was it crowded. I have never seen so many people on opening day. We were the first ones there and had no Idea it would turn into what it did. 20 boats went down the Bogie by 7:30. We fished the confluence down the tall timbers hole but didnt have a chance as the plug pullers pushed all the fish out of our reach as day light came. Did see the boats take three on plugs in a matter of minutes down below us. We then walked up the Clawah only to find someone was already on every drift. By that time we said screw it and went home.
I got back from Arizona on Saturday and thought Id go down to the Clawah and throw a line for a couple of hours in the evening. To my suprise there was knowone there. Fished a mile and a half of river and saw four fish but no bites.
My brother has fished it a few times and managed to loose one but hasnt seen much around. Dosent look like the run is off to a good start. Ive asked around and heard some mixed stuff fair one day and bad the next. Looks like I might be spending more time in the salt this summer.
