There are some achievements which are never done in the presence of those who hear of them. Catching salmon is one, and working all night is another.

By the way nailed 8 more steelhead today... including one GIANT buck like 15+ pounds. I was alone at the time, so i started a video to document, then i got one good look at how big it was, you can see it on my next video, then im like ohhh SH** and put the camera down. Got a good pic, but no video cause i didnt wanna lose it while filming. Pics and video comin soooon. Nailed them today again. vedder on fire.

Okay Kokmandoo. Stop rubbing it in. [-( .. I can see the pics. Its been awhile since I fished Canadien waters,but all the fish I did catch out of the Vedder looked like the ones y'all get. Always Chromers always fat hawgs. My mouth salivates seeing y'alls pics. Make me wish I was back at WWSC. I went to Western from 72-74. I fished the waters up there alot. I had loads of friends up in Salt Spring Island. They took me fishing alot. Next winter Im moving up there so you guys will have to get a house next year with an extra room. Again thanks for sharing pics to those of us who work more then fish. Good luck always.

Cheer up Rac, one of these days the girls will discover FF :-" . That will slow him down a bit and leave some fish for the rest of us.
I've done quite well up on the Vedder myself this year. I fish a few miles upstream of where FF has been sore mouthing the fish. The toughest thing to deal with up there is when the cold wind blows down river.

^^^^^^ +1 to that. the vedder north wind is a killer and can literally ruin a day. The lower has been great tho hasnt it? especially the last 2 weeks ive been consistantly catching 2+ fish a day. I better find a girl who's fine with me fishin 3 or more days a week cause thats just the way its gonna be!!
