silvio Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) The best break during the school year for me has to be march break. This break for me means one thing and one thing only steelhead. Apparently Berge (BBNOTTY) is on march break too lol in less then a week he’s taken two days off work lol. So my day started with a mild heart attack when my alarm went off and I proceeded to turn it off role over and fall back into a deep sleep. Luckily I got a mother who didn’t want to hear my complain all day so she barged into my room a quarter after five to tell me to wake up lol. Scared Berge had already come and gone I rushed to call him… after scaring the crap out of me he says “naw man all be there in 10 minutes“. so I grab my gear load it up in the steelie mobile and take off for the tribs. Lately on the way to the tribs we’ve been tying roe in the cars (which my mom freaked out when she found out lol) so after 100 roe bags we were finally in heaven. We suited up greased the shoulders and elbows and proceeded to clam position lol. Not even minutes in Berge smashes a nice steelhead. I followed with a freshly hatched steelhead it was so small but a sign of good things to come. Lots of these guy/girls around (always a good sign) Then I managed to shook both Berge and myself with this spring brown that was as chrome as a steelhead. Then Berge decided to hook into this screamer literally this fish took off and wouldn’t stop. With a bit of time and patients the fish was subdued. Nice fish bud what a fight. Fishing died down and with time ticking away we went on the search for some steel. We arrived at a trib we did well at a week before to see about 5 guys fishing the first pool. We suit up and head down. I see a face I’ve seen before. With some hardcore staring I realized it was MJL. We talked a bit and I told him id show him some water I knew of on the creek. We went walking and got to a nice spot were Berge got a spunky fish. Shortly after MJL got this little bullet. All in all it was a great day to be out with great company. It was nice meeting you MJL I am sure well share a few drifts in the near future plus you owe me a fish. Edited March 19, 2009 by silvio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJL Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) All in all it was a great day to be out with great company. It was nice meeting you MJL I am sure well share a few drifts in the near future plus you owe me a fish. But Berge and I let you have the first cast into the pool. It wasn’t our fault you hooked the tree on the far bank.LOL It was nice to meet both you and Berge today. Thanks for showing me around that river. I never fished that stretch of it before and it does look like a nice piece of water. I now know which trees to hit for some free floats this summer. Unbelievably chrome I walked by one of the holes on my way back to the car and just had to set up the rod again for a couple more drifts…Ended up with another small hen identical to Berge’s. Hope to run into you and Berge on the river again. I normally fish alone and the company today was nice. Great report and pics BTW Edited March 19, 2009 by MJL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tells me stories about him and the first 5 guys that were fishing that river 15 years ago. I got one creek I need to hit before it goes down hill.

The Urban Fisherman Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 what's all this nonsense I keep hearing about some sort of march break?!?! lol Man when I was in college we got close to 2 weeks off. I think I fished for a week and half and then crammed the last couple of days.... Nice fish dude - enjoy march breaks while you can!
