Last year, I nabbed my earliest winter do date on 11/30. Today, I topped that by two weeks:

Not where I would expect, that's for sure.
I had a few hours to kill this morning and thought, what the heck, let's drive to the Clack and most likely get skunked considering it's still quite early for winters and summers are getting hard to find. Mostly thought I'd work on my single hand spey technique and some roll casting, with an occasional toss of a spoon and jig. About an hour into things and get a float down and head shaker. Figured a late summer, but as I got it within sight, surprise, surprise, it was bright! Then I see a high fin and it's kinda fat and no max clip? WTH?
Definitely not expected, but made the last-minute trip worthwhile.

You're making me excited.
Just need a big shot of rudderless brats, and it's game on.
Well done.

Played on the Wilson this morning looking for a early winter with no luck. Congratulations on a nice catch.

Does this mean I can stop fretting about all the salmon I never caught yet? Way to go man.

I went to the coast today looking for an early winter, but alas we couldn't keep those pesky chrome salmon off of the hooks....

im just at the point i want to catch something. i would like it to be a winter but at this point..... id be happy with a trout (this trout would be caught somewhere open year round of course) dont get me wrong i love going out scouting holes and all but the misses i can see its wearing her down. i have to keep her interested because i dont want to lose this fishing partner then i might actually get b****ed at for going fishing so much bring her along is so much better lol
