First Coho

[GMR]

Started the day with Modest Man, FishFreak and Imfishing up at Cedar Creek..
A couple hours later the *swish* sounds were like Nails on a chalkboard to me..
It got to the point that is was more stressfull than fun there.
Imfishing had to head off to work so the 3 of us headed down river.
where we found some nice peace and Quiet. And a whole place without anyone around to cast Spinners and shortly after getting there I got....


It was good way to end a day.. Poor Hen put her mouth right over the treble hook, closed down and Stapled her mouth shut. Had all 3 points nicely set.

Kevin is a scholar, Scary as it is he kept the mood light and kept that "chalk board"
ear piercing noises tollerable. He is a hoot.
Although I think hes training himself to carry bodys out with the amount of Gear he had on his back....
Crossing streams and hiking around with Fishfreak and Modest man made my day.
Good times. Looking foward to the next outing

Yeah, nothing like watching a bunch of guys whiffing it till they manage to snag something.

Congrats on your fish and props on doing it the right way.

You forgot the one that he hooked in the mouth, and then was so excited that he forgot to check for the fin and had it up on the rocks by the gills when he noticed it was a native...

It technicly wasn't in the mouth eather.. About 1/2 inch behind it.. But yeah....
At least thats how I remember it.

 

[fishingfreak]

It was under his Jaw not even close! He just kept saying how it bit and was in the mouth to convince himself and everyone else he was doing the right thing. I felt my rig go over so many fish but I would not set the hook until I feel that bite! I just keep doing the right thing and they will eventually end up getting caught. Notice IM and I were the only ones using beads and secret sauce and where actually getting bites and not air whiffing all morning. Sheeesh I still have nightmares of that sound. WHOOSH REEL REEL REEL(12' leader) FISH ON! 1 minute later AH ITS IN THE ARSE! Just think how the fish feel. It was a good time watching you get your first Coho though. That was an Awesome Hookset. The Ho had no chance.lol

I am so glad you managed to hook one using traditional methods and not the SOOOUUUULLLL TRRAIINNN - EERREY, EERREY - Whish, Whish [author's attempt at translating turn table scratchy noises into words and failing misserably]. I gather from previous posts you all know me now as Kevin Smith, the body packing fisherman who uses beads and FF's "Secret Sauce"...Well...I'm good with that. Nice fish...Keep it up.

Lmao! Hey I love the body packin fishing with you IM!lol

 

[fishingfreak]

Just so everyone knows IM is a very awesome guy and Fisherman! He is very loud and voicestrous! He keeps you laughing and having fun all day even when it gets packed in spots! I have had a few people ask me (mainly Snaggers) how I can fish with him and well I just told them be ethical, dont snag, and you will get along just fine. Its funny they just dont fish by us anymore. So IM " I Love you Man"! HEHEHE!

Oh I hate all those guys... Sure wish the economy would get better so at least some of them would have something else to do.

Nice Fish. I almost got into with a guy cause I wouldn't stop pointing out to people that he was snagging. Went by the slaughter hole today on my way down river......Disgusting

Greetings all.

Well...What can I say...I like to enjoy myself, and have fun.

And I have a blast. It is my thought that we [Thats humans] have only one life and at the end of it we have only memories. Memories of the good times...So let the good times roll.

I realize that I might party it up a little on the bank, maybe a little to much.

All I can do is apologize for having to good of a time while fishing.

Sorry. Thats the way its always been with me. Like it or not.
