After losing the first steelhead I hooked into on Sunday, I decided to take advantage of not having any classes today and go fishing. I started at Whittaker but only spent about 20 minutes there. I then drove Old Stagecoach because I'd never seen it before and felt like exploring. Stopped once along the road and fished for about 15 minutes in the shadow of a railroad bride. After donating some gear to that particular stretch of water, I continued on and ended up at, is it Konnie Memorial fishing area?
Anyways, not more than ten minutes after arriving I've got a fish on. I banked him after about 5 minutes, took a picture, and sent him on his way (native obviously). I'll try to get that picture up later. I also pulled in a dinky rainbow, what I believe was a cutthroat, and an ugly ass sucker fish (decent fight though). All in all, a good day on the river.
There's two different types of guides choice, the stuff at joes is gooey nastyness that isn't even good for spawn sacs, but the stuff i've got from bimart has been decent, it's not really gooey and the eggs are pretty large and not all squished to smytherines status.Oh your lucky to get one on that "guides choice" stuff. I hated it. All gooey and mushy and it wont stay on the hook

Therre's a real nice spot right after MP 5 on stagecoach if you're heading in the downstream direction, It's got a little bit of everything, you can throw spinners, float a jig or roe, pull a plug with a side planer, whatever you want it's do-able. Whittaker was a mad house today, I didn't want to deal with it so I spent the day on lake creek, which has wayyy better color.I was up there exploring today but had no lucklearned the area though, went down old stagecoach road about 4 miles and stopped at a spot for about an hour and thought i would go explore some more, so i went back up to the whitaker creek area and hit up a spot for 3 hours but again no luck. Saw plenty ppl fishing from the bank and in boats, i will be back up there next weekend though knowing the area a little better i can focus on fishing
Nice fish btw!
