I went today and Caught the Biggest silver of my life. IT is huge. I took some
pictures and will post them on here as soon as I get them. I went to the fly shop and
it was just over 21, but it lost some blood when I conked it over the head, so I want
to say 22ish or 24. It was one of those old spring scales and they don't work so hot
but anyways...
I use small teeny looking nymphs but on a standard wet nymph hook. I use buck tail
and wrap it forward instead of the Pheasant tail. I will also weight them down a bit.
You have to use 6-9 inch a second sink rated line to get down in the holes quick
where the silvers are here on the Kalama. Any specific Questions you have I'll be
happy to answer. If anyone wants to come down before Friday I can show them exactly
where etc.
I am heading up to Kootenai lake in Canada On Friday to spend a week with my dad on
his boat. He use to Guide on Lake Pend O'reille in Idaho, but the Fish and game have
that so screwed up that we are heading up to Canada.
