My dad pulled in a winter run off a plug that we released since we already had bonked one earlier that I swung for dinner. Generally I don't keep most fish but all the family was here for vacation crying for fresh vittles. The king would have been the best table fare but as order would have it...
Hit the Wilson yesterday 12/30 with my Dad. We had a few fish. Winter Runs that were little scrapy hatch fish. 8ish lbs. Then towards the end of the run I came upon a gravel bank with a deep trench calling out for 10ft of T18 and a deep swing with something resembling a fuscia prawn wearing a...
Thanks for the responses. I ran the river yesterday with my IK. The log jam was certainly not something getting cleared out anytime soon, looks like it will only get bigger. Had a nice day floating between two boats. I have fished the upper river so this was fun to explore. I found the middle...
Again thanks for the responses. I am all set heading down tomorrow. If I were to take out at the gravel pit who do I need to contact to pay/ask for permission?
Oh and if you had to pick between the Trask and Wilson which would it be and who would I need to contact for the shuttle?
I am going to bring an IK that I fish from solo and my driftboat for the family trip. I will probably float the Canny in my IK and do a little recon. I will bring a Saw down with me but to be honest since I am not a local I shy away from doing beaver missions. I clean my local whitewater and...

Thanks for the beta. I will plan on bringing the drift boat down. Did you guys do well? Are there still silvers and kings milling around or are they further up now?
I will probably pack float rods, plug rods, spinning gear a CP and some fly rods so we will cover the water pretty good...
Nice job on that one. Were still talking 3 weeks away though and I can't believe it will still be good then but I appreciate the feedback and I'll keep that on the radar for planning. I might just take my Inflatable kayak and roll through the Nec alone if nothing seems to be panning out. In the...
Troutmasta, I am open to suggestions certainly on any of those rivers. I asked about the Necc because I banked it two years ago and enjoyed it, well and being only 10 minutes from town it makes a small dent on the Family Vacation time which is not technically all about me going fishing, although...
I could and I will if just I fish but I was looking to run a boat down for family fun purposes. I will also say fishing through a river with a boat is almost always more productive too unless you know where they are, which I don't. lol
Do you know what levels the Necanicum goes in a driftboat or if there is any wood present right now? I have seen photos of people out there in boats before so I figured it was common to drift it.
Ok so I made a post year years ago during the holiday plans and can't find my account so here it goes again. Every Christmas our family does the holiday thing in a condo. Usually it is either Mexico or Seaside (same difference right?). Anyways two years ago we went to Seaside and I packed my...
