Thats some good info right there!

Nice, thanks for the info you guys! I believe I used to have a green and silver little cleo but lost it back during Coho season. I have fished Dick Nites quite a bit, but you need slow slow water for them. Tried using one yesterday on the Skook and even in some of the slowest water it was still spinning rather than swimming.

The last of the chrome, the rest are all moldy or resemble the boot coho that swim in that river in January, REALLY Dark! Run is basically over, the hatchery quit recycling and now just bring the steelhead down to the food banks.
