so i love to fish and apperantly im not very good at it. i went to the nisqually and saw people walking out with fish as i pulled up, nice fish to. the bridge was super crowded so i went up river to the rocks and fished off of them. caught no fish, but there where fish jumping every where. i think if i would have floted roe and/or jigs i would have killed it in this spot. then i went to to the gravel bars with no luck and no one else having luck either. my day sucked.....but my friend fished it that night at about 5:30 on and killed it. he said just while he was putting on his wadders he saw like 7 fish caught at the bridge. he said he did ok there but moved up river and did even better. so apperantly all the fish are on the nisqually and every one is catching them but me.......why does mother nature hate me so much hahahaha!

I broke off a biggish fish that day too. Seems that the fish are there even though the nets are out. About time!

Yep takes some patience and some observing others that are hooking fish IMO :-) At least if you aren't used to an area. Seems the Squall has been doing OK this year (uh-oh hope I didn't just curse the river).

Did you catch a Coho or a Chinook flinginpooh? Did it have a nice set of mandibles? Chomp chomp.

Quit teasing us jens... I am guessing by asking if it was a coho or chinook you are hinting at some approx 14 pounder Squall coho punched on your card already!!! LOL.

I heard of someone who has fished this river before take someone elses fish and re-hook it. That person then put the fish back in the water to play with it. It's a good story to tell the kids before they go to bed at night.
