1 100th of a lb is seperating 1 st place from 2nd.. many 1000's of dollars difference in 4 or 5 drops of slime,,unless i had a 5 lb over fish in the lead and was in the pro devision i would get DQ'd for a loc fish ,unless we had a 500pt cooler too

Hmm different boat same water no hookup..?? I know every hour can be a different bite ,but maybe speed,depth of lure,fly length,,,Can ya think of anythime like that ..Or could be the fish don't like the smell of his boat and were just pickin on ya!! I've fished the oak a few times and yer wasting yer time fishing the flats........................................Unless ya want steelies,browns,kings,cohos,Atlantics ,and lakers out of the same water. P.S. good lesson Don,t expect fish in a Rookies Boat!

Don't panic on WWIV 's post every once in a while he pulls out his pre Korean war fishing book... Keep it simple and do wire on dypsys,,,,but the word wire will never be a good word if ya don't use care ,,One quick turn =1 hr fishing lost,,,,,1-kink=30.00 in tackle lost....but care and paying attention will work flawless.. Oh And not "poppin"(trip) and retrive the dypsy when a rigger fish decides he wants ALL of the water behind the boat ,ant a good thing either.

MAYOR PAUL, HE Let me off one day with a verbal warning,said next time i'd be lookin across the bench from him!!! Ut Oh that means he's the judge too.... But if ya leave port on anything but a 330 heading you should be ok..

Save yer Gas Johnie ,just talked to Jerry and he said to pass along the derby is OVER and not fish for a week.....aaaRGGGHHH! I done been HAD AGAIN!!!

I SEE THE FISH WASNT THE ONLY THING ON THE BOAT EATING WELL.. That thing looks like a baitfish with Jerry holding it..

good for you 1 week yer landing the biggest salmon on yer boat to date and the next yer raking in the money,,,,so do ya think 2.4 mph is really too slow now?

Hey I Might Get In Just Read Yer List ,Them guys are soooooo bad "They Couldnt Catch A Fish In A Rainbarrel With A Stick Of Dynamite"

or going to jail......

Hey when ya own a 22 ft beercan ,where the only noticable difference is the mainsail was removed and a real engine was installed... still running 6 bamboo rods with bobbers..... and a concrete filled paint can for a anchor..... I just like to lern on them nice boats...they got shiny stuff all over them..

First year i opted outa all 4 and ya gotta pull hens teeth to get info.., Didnt really OPT. out it just got out of my price range..

osweago ant to far east .he was in the pro am on top gun 2 i think,,,bet he got big fish of the derby(pro/am) too.

Good point Mike.. I.ve heard of more "lime desease" reports in our area than ever..guess its time to "blouse" the boots and spray down..

I case ya missed it and need a smile on this wet day

Wondered what was in that box ya brought on the boat last trip ...shoulda said something we could of had a tug o war.

yup makes a difference,,,tho the green glow (bead) flys seem to outproduce others,,,,chartruse beads are good too.. water clarityand depth fishing seem to have just as important effect on flys as color of spoons....Last night was so nice i sat under the stars till midnite on the deck ,,had some goffy ideas come to mind that im pretty excited to try but its "TOP SECRET"

YA MISSED A FEW the cohos tend to just show up and soon,,,, think they make a full frontal assult from the north straight across the lake... But as I think a sec. I never did see the 1 to 2 hrs of cohos run in the salmon river just before dark like ive seen in the past years .. their were some pretty good numbers in their last fall but not the NoN stop action usually in the last 1or 2 hours before dark,,,

Best Type of post ,,,, Good learning curve (dead battery,dypsy weight wrong) at least ya put yer plug in.... ,,,,,,,,,,,,,And ya done got a fisshy too... As for yer sons face "PRICELESS" Thank You For Sharing such a trip..Makes us "Advise Guys" feel like we helped a tad too. I see more action in that still pic than a 5 min video.....Now we want some of that what went on during the fight to the boat and the net job IF YOU CAN REMEMBER ANY OF IT!!

best eatin size...,the little ones come right in so ,No to the fight strain...at 7 to 15 their ready to hit the happy hunting grounds (spawn) they dont put on much weight after that but they will double their size when they bloat up.

Way to go Jerry!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.loc.org/uploads/Summer2012.pdf

I'll Bet its not a problem for them to absorb the money fishermen spend on rooms,food,beer,bait,tackle,and gas....TAXES..... But what do i know................HOW TO VOTE!!!

Dont forget the baggy of fake dog poop as they turn around from setting rods with the lid of their food cooler open toss it in and say ya didnt wanna stink up the boat,got any Wet Wipes?

These guys are real easy to have fun with too,, every 5 min walk back and pop a rod,and say "just checking to see if you put a lure on it.".... Eat lots of Mexican food the night before or whatever gives ya "Good Gas" and when they stand behind ya to coach ya let er RIP................ Break out a bag of bananas 1/2 way in the charter............................................................................................................................ Don't trust their drag settings ...CRANK THAT PUPPY DOWN when it breaks off look at em and say "CAN'T YOU TIE A KNOT THE RIGHT WAY?? bRING a WHISTLE and when their bent over setting rods blow it real hard right behind them.................................................................. and with that said all Captians like a good "GOOSE" when setting rods or a good "Wet Willie""just as they net the fish... Just before they net the fish flip reel in "Freespool" and say geese yer REELS "Rat Nest" real easy must be cheep stuff.... Yup Bunch Of Good Ole Guys... .......................................................... OH and Keep pointing at other boats and say real loud "Geese they just landed another fish we shoulda gone with them!!!!!!!!!!

Lot of Good oll boys at Sandy Creek & The Oak.....If ya want some "Down To Earth" Charters ....Running Rebel,silverfoxcharters,Gambler, Sandy Creek...........Yankee Troller at the oak....... If these guys are booked You Can Trust their Recmondations 100%
