Some nice looking Ski's, Congrat's. Clarence

Great post, A little awareness never hurts. Thanks, Clarence

Thanks for the info Dave, I really don't want to mention the Trib I am talking about, i hope it just gets left alone. However it was not a suitable spawning creek a few years ago, now it is greatly improved for many reasons. This is why I am so curious about this particular run of fish. I am hoping that it is the improvents that have been made which are making the difference. It has been about five years since the upgrades nad I am trying to figure out why it took until this year for the Chinooks to show up in such strong numbers. Do you feel that the Salmon/Trout that run the creek in your home town are stocked or natual reproduction fish? Thanks, Clarence

Thanks Bill, You may be right. If they spawned in a lower portion or even the mouth of the Trib in years past, would they now run all the way up the creek to spawn. Am I most likely seeing natuarly reproducing Fish? I am almost certain there is no stocking program in this Trib. Clarence

I have noticed that many Tribs with no stocking of Salmon have decent sized runs in certain years. Also many of these tribs appear to have no real natural runs of fish in previous years. Are these stocked fish from other areas which have no instinct to return to a natural spawning area and simply find a creek to spawn in? The one particular creek i am thinking of is having a very large Chinook run right now and I beiieve that there were no fish up this particular Trib for the past 4 or five years. I am not looking to cause a huge debate or argument with this thread, just looking for some educated opinion. Thanks Clarence

Fantastic Pics......again Clarence

Great Post, those are some beauty Bass! Clarence

The fish are always active when i'm on days. Did you try that spot we were talking about for the opener?

Perfect mudline out front, Did the fish come right at the line or out farther. Two more nice fish. Cheers, Clarence

There has been quite a few Browns from that area this spring. That is the fattest one that I can recall from there in a while. Well Done Clarence

That was a great little read. Thanks for posting. Cheers, Clarence

Good Stuff! Clarence

Hey, nice to see my personal bait man on OFC. I saw this fish first hand, and it was strange indeed. Why don't you tell everyone about the huge one you lost right after that one. Nice Browns on the other post as well. Cheers, Terry

Looks like a good plan. Hope it goes ahead. Clarence
