Second day out on the Situk

 Well I spent another day on the river, finishing up the tent camp owned by the Yakutat Lodge. We have just to build the new beds, and it will be complete. After the work was done, I headed on down, with the 2 newest members of our guide staff, (“Luke @ Rick”).

Rick is a retired music teacher, turned guide. Rick guides on the Oregon coastal waters near Mapleton Oregon.

Luke is an experienced fisherman, who has fished the Bearing sea, and also ran jet boats in the past.

We were able to fish for a small amount of time. Here are some pics of the fish that made it to the bank, and also a shot of the competed tent camp, (“Before paint”).

Today was a great day on the creek. I felt as thought I had it to myself. I saw a fisherman, but I believe they left early, (Their mistake!). The morning was not to bad, but the afternoon got red hot again. I was able to get into 12 fish, and go 50%, landing 6 of these great fish. I will be out again tomorrow, hopefully with the same, or even better results.

Here are a few pics from Damon and His Brother:

Today started out real slow. I saw some fish in the first hole I came too today, but they were not into biting anything. I spent about 2 hours working down stream, without a fish sighting. Finally I got to the table top hole (“Same hole as in the video”), and I hit into my first fish. He got away, but the female that followed was not so lucky. I then spent another 2 hours looking for fish, without success. As I have said before, “Always go back through the water you fished in the morning, because nobody sees all the fish. So I went back through the areas I fished that morning, and I started to see and hook up with fish. I got into another 5 fish before it was over, and landed 2 of them. So I got into 7 fish today, and landed 3, not the percentage I wanted, but one of the ones that got away was foul hooked, so I can really take that one off the percentage’s. Here is some fish porn from today. Enjoy!

Got my butt kicked!!!

17 Tuesday Mar 2009

Today was a great day for fishing on the creek. The water level has risen a bit from the recent rains, but the clarity and flow is still in good shape. I would almost go as far as to say, that the fish are now arriving in good numbers. I saw nearly 20 fish today, and was able to hook up with lucky number 13. These fish today were hot!!!. They kicked my butt up and down the creek. I hooked up with three females that went about 15 LBS each. They tore me up!!. I was able to get two of them to the bank, but not to the hand. All 3 of these fish took me down stream nearly a quarter mile. If I had a camera guy today, wow what a video that would have been. If anybody out there would be willing to follow me with a video camera one day soon, I would be more that grateful. It’s not an easy job filming on this creek, but I think the video would be exceptional. Anyway, all 3 of these big fish jumped no less than three times each, the last one must have come out of the water 8 times, while tearing line off my reel, and not stopping for anything. I was able to land 2 fish today, but all the rest just ripped me apart. I was done fishing and worn out by 11:00 today. I am hoping to hold out a bit longer tomorrow, and land some of these big girls, so I can get the pictures going again. Here are the two I got in today. By the way, everyone can thank Indy “My dog” for losing one of the big ones today. She jumped right on it and popped the hook as I was reaching down to get a hand on it. Oh well, got love her anyway.

Slow day for the Landing, and hooking.

Here is a video I am trying to put together, but no pics from today. Sorry!!. I did see a good number of fish on my way out today. One hole had 6 fish in it, I hooked 2, but then they were gone. Another hole had 2, hooked up with both, but never even got a good look at them. Very frustrating after such a good run of landing nearly 80% for the last week. If it wasn’t for days like this, I wouldn’t be a fisherman.
