Saturday = Pass Lake for trout
Fished Pass Lake on Saturday afternoon. I think we were there a little
late. My buddy claims that the best action at Pass Lake is in the morning,
but we were rock climbing at Mt. Erie, not just sleeping in. There were
about 15 other tubes/boats on the lake. Didn't see any fish landed. On a
side note: We were fishing chironomids and there was chop on the
water...enough chop to make the strike indicator bounce in the waves. Seems
like this would screw up the stationary chironomid. Does anybody have a
method for fishing chironomids when there's chop on the water or does
everyone use buggers or go home when this is the case?
Sunday = Skykomish for steelhead
Floated the Sky today from Thunderbird to the farm about 3/4 mile below the
Lewis Street bridge (Hansen Farm?). We launched at about 5:45 and there
were already boats coming down river to us (probably from Two Bit). Geesh,
and I thought we got an early start. Lotsa boats on the river...didn't see
or hear of any fish being hooked or landed. The river is flowing clear,
cold, and moderately low. A good rain and it should be full of fish,
right?
