Hellow fellow flyfishers, My name is Dan and I am currently a graduate student at the University of Washington. I get out flyfishing as often as possible (1-3 times a week) and spend much more time practicing my casting than catching any fish. I grew up in northern california and chased trout, steelhead, and bass. I moved to minnesota for a few years and fished for trout and a few northern pike. Spent a couple of summers doing research in the florida keys and chasing bonefish and tarpon. I have been here in WA for a couple of years now and still haven't managed to hook a steelhead (when I do I will average 1 fish per 200-300 hours!! pretty good huh.) I will cast a fly to anything that swims. Right now I am fishing Chums and was wondering if anyone has any reports from the Skagit? I was expecially wondering what the screwy flows (2500 in the morning and 5000 by 10:00) do for the fishing. Dan
