A day on the Nestucca

[lilsalmon]

I guess I got voted to do a thread. Myself, bigsteel and Brandon headed out this morning to check out the Nestucca. The Little Nestucca was really low so we decided to find some trout and cutty's on the upper Nestucca. Between the three of us, I think we totaled in the neighborhood of 65 fish. They ranged from small to almost small but bigsteel got a 13 incher and Brandon had a couple of good sized one. My prize and one pic is a nice little cutty. It never ceases to amaze me the spunk these smaller guys have. Here are some pics.

Cuties

Good job on the little cuties! I assume they were all returned to the water unharmed as usual. Zach and I went to Bonneville and watched the fish in the ladder then went over to the hatchery and met Herman the sturgeon. Beautiful day and great company as well.

sounds like a nice day on the water, can I suggest you guys try out the trask next time you go? LOTS of big cutts in there!

And there's a few steelhead jumping around in the "Dam Hole"! At least there was last week when I was there.

Nicely done. Another fine expedition by our very own dynamic trio.

The Trask? I'm ready to go...never fished there either. All fishes were released safe and sound. The one pic I took kind of was funny cuz the fishy jumped out of my hand but before going in the water managed to jump right through the strap on the camera so the line was tangled in it.....hmmmmmmm....I am always good for at least one laugh
