I Agree Bodo

Never counted fish and I lost count of # of years fished at around 30
I fish not because I regard fishing as being terribly important, but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant, and not nearly so much fun. ~ John Volker

2 minutes to go through 6 months worth of fishing journals and logs counting each one hooked I don't think so, it probally takes you 2 minutes to read a paragraph...that is if you can write one.
btw I was saying that it would take a while to count how many steelhead you catch for 180 something days of fishing, that would take a while and then go through them and try and compare, of course I don't know how long it takes cause I do not log my fishI just keep down what I caught them on and where, that is why I always ask about rigs cause I keep a word document on rivers I fish and when to go, where to fish at and what to use and any other tips, I got quite a bundle of info on certain rivers that is why I know what to use and can remember what I used during certain times.

ummm, pretty sure Danny just remembers when and where he caught the fish he caught, and as for writing/reading, I think he's competent in that aspect considering he goes to college. In terms of rigs I'd say that bobber dogging eggs hits steelhead on every single river around here. BTW saw you on the cascade last week BB, where were your fish?

HAHAHA ya bro, we had ours. You said youd be the guy with 3 rods and 2 fish each day. Maybe you need 6 rods next time, may increase you chances a bit

thanks metal again, but I am used to it from another website, and I am 17 hoping to go to a college a little more advance than WWU and anyone can get to college as long as they can pay.
I thought that was you kock, but since you are in montana or something I did not want to seem stupid if that was not you, I also saw FF pulling a couple out from clarks creek too butr did not feel like saying hey that early wanted to get my own fish but it was slow, I did get one sunday so I was 5 off of my prediction I guess FFs fish photos can be decieving, looked like it was easy fishing.
I also saw chasin chrome or chrome chasin? I thought he was bill herzog at first haha.
Also met a guy named salmonnerd he was pretty cool and really good too.
