I WALKED AND I WALKED DRIFTING EVERY LITTLE RUN I COULD. MUST OF WALKED ATLEAST A KM OF RIVER. WAS DEBATING TO GO BACK TO THE CAR AND SAID OK JUST ONE MORE CORNER. WASNT IN A RUSH SINCE I WAS SOLO TODAY. WELL I HIT THE CORNER AND STARTED DRIFTING . LETS PUT IT THIS WAY . I ROLLED 30 ROE SACS LAST NIGHT. I WAS OUT BY 9AM. THEN WENT TO THE PINKIES. AWESOME STAINED WATER BAIT. STARTED NAILING THEM ON THAT. AROUND 11 THE WATER STARTED CLEARIN UP QUICK. THE BITES STOPPED. NO FISH LEFT TO BITE MAYBE MOST WOULD THINK AFTER CATCHIN THAT MANY. TURNED OVER TO THE JIGS AND IT STARTED ALL OVER AGAIN. SO A LONG STORY SHORT I WALKED ALOT OF WATER AND GOT REAL LUCKY AND CAME APON A GREAT HOLDING HOLE OF THEM.

okumasheffield Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 Please stop posting outings during weekdays ... I gotta get into self-employed trades .. or I will stop checking OFC at work
ohhenrygsr Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 haha it's really hard to wish all week and collect money. Don't worry i got some weekday post coming.
ohhenrygsr Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 It's Also pretty funny to see how many ppl have checked this thread out cause of the title.
solopaddler Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 You're almost making me rethink packing away my float rods for the season. Sounds like a great day, good for you .
Wendel Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 wow, nice fish and report! I must admit I was hoping they were going to rehab your addiction to capitalizaiton....
LeXXington Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 Such a nice day too,, man thats just wrong to post this for us daily 9-5 workers !!
MJL Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 Well done CC...Beauty fish I promised myself I wouldn't fish for steel anymore...Why did you have to go and post this!? My carp fishing buddies held an intervention on my chrome addiction the other day - They said I had to stop reading threads on steelheading...I really thought you were taking drugs...Honest j/k
Kenny G Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 Hey C.C. I remember you from Floatfishing.net I was known as Skippy back then. Too bad about the wrist man. Kenny G.
Leecher Posted May 13, 2009 Report Posted May 13, 2009 Excellent report and pics COPPER You certainly got into quality fish and abundance!!! Congratulations Now hope you'll take it easy on your elbow and wrist so that you'll be able to recover for future outings. Great job my friend! Thanks for sharing Leechman
River Rat Posted May 13, 2009 Report Posted May 13, 2009 I assumed you were hitting the rehab for steroids!!! Ok, don't rage on me now...jus kidding.....and thanks for the "rub in" text on the way back from the river. I had to avoid sharp objects for a while till I got over missing the hit. P.S. got out Monday night and hit the water at 6:30......I haven't seen smallies like that anywhere but Simcoe, some real pigs. OOS of course so no pics, released boatside in water........as the sun set I found those late hitting eyes I was telling you about, stayed out till 11pm and whacked em good! Had 4 or 5 litterally smack my crank as it hit the water....weird feeling for them in the dark. RR
