Returned from the North a couple ago - hunt GREAT, the Kechika marvellous and productive! Hit the Riv yest - 75 fish for 3 rods in 5 hours. The flow of hoes and springs is steady, and most are chrome.

Time to get there is NOW! Heading out in 1/2 hour to do some more. Expect a few weeks of this brilliant action to follow, so get there if you can!

Robert or Matt, do either of you have any current water levels on the stamp??? How much has it come up in the past three or four days, can a jet boat make it up the back channel behind the Island infront of the somass launch??? Was up there a week ago, lots of chrome coho in the lower system, unable to make them hit spinner's in the low warm water. Had lots of luck doing the lining thing with Dave's boats, but no takers on the hardwear. I expect the water has cooled off but are you dooing the lining thing in fast water or are they hitting spinner's/spoons now?? Where are you guys fishing as of late??? Swanny's??? above/below??? Sorry for all the questions, trying to decide to do the NitNat or the Stamp in the next couple. Wondering if some Coho have moved into the Nitty with this rain?? Any info would be appreciated, who knows maybee we'll cross paths on the flow..Thanx in advance guys!!

the fishing on the stamp is fantastic. Cant miss on the Coho with red yarn they are all around 15 to 20lbs. Springs up to 30lbs. What a year

Fishin' fantatsic again yest! No large blackies, but several smaler were closely examined <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

DHA One spring &gt; 77 cm, one under, two coho hatch or wild.

Roe Bags The water has not risen any noticeable amount in the last few days. The ground appears to be sucking up all the moisture the sky water produced. Jet rig would be really tough under these conditions. Water has cooled somewhat, and the fish are becoming more aggressive as a result. About 1/3 of ours on spinners the last two, with the balance lined. The Bucket has been very good, as has Butch's Bar and the pullout. Heading to Nitty in less than an hour - bears and springs, maybe a hoe or two. Letcha know what we see.

I was there at first light this morning and stayed for about two hours. There were ten other people at the same place as me.

I was trying my luck with an 8 wt. fly rod and glow bugs (okay, so I am different). Everyone else was using the typical casting gear with float and pencil lead (yarn colours included: green, red, even one guy using blue).

I caught nothing.

Everyone else was catching lots. Many beautiful coho were landed. All seemed to be bigger than 10 pounds. All looked chrome and bright to me.

I even saw some sockeye released and some small springs released.

By my guess, a third of these fish were flossed. I am pleased to say that I saw all of the obviously snagged fish released. This was generally speaking a good crowd of fishermen (either that or the fact that there were so many people watching that they felt obligated to follow the regulations).

I am going back with my fly rod again tomorrow morning because I am both stupid and stubborn.

Fished Wed., tonnes of hoes in the 8-12lb. class. Some springs, but finicky on everything. Mostly flossed but a few aggresive types as well.
Any foe on the Nitty would be much appreciated. I'd imagine the place is an absolute ditch.thanx-the dirtdog
