Feeling great now that I have a few fish under my belt. That 25# chinook came on a 400' copper rig. That took a while to bring in. The steel gave quite the show. Kind of like one of our landlocks but quite a bit bigger. The meat from the coho looked great too. Deeper orangeish color. Gave it to some friends to eat. Gave the rest of the meat away at work and made a ton of people happy.
I too am wanting to fish the Bar in the spring. I keep hearing how great it is. I will have to mooch a ride from the Great Lakes Minnow again. He starts the season out there and slowly moves his boat back east as the salmon move east. Must be nice!!!
