Was into some fish today. Nothing bigger than low teens but did release a 5lb hatch coho which was nice to see. Fish are spread out from ballenas to sangster.

Kelly, when you say that the fish are spread out from Ballenas to Sangster, do you mean at Ballenas and Sangster, or all the way in between?
I was at both the other day, and nothing.

A little off subject, but IMO that top photo has got to be one of the coolest fishing pics I have ever seen! Nice work and thanks for sharing....
