Thanks for the kind words, Eric. I always have fun fishing you and company.

Wow ! Such a bountiful trip in what is looking to be a very slow season . I don't get up north much and have only made a couple of trips in my area to no avail .I can usually scratch out a fish or two in peak season. Word on the river is that its a very slow season . Almost unbelievable that someone could hook 60 fish in two days anywhere these days .I know the Wilson has been hot in past years. Hadn't heard much about it as of late. I guess it helps to have 4 guides with you. What guides were you fishing with and are they local ? Again, bravo. Great to hear the news in slow times.
It has been a "tougher season" compared to years past, but years past have been stupid good. It looks like we may experience this for a bit longer, we'll see. I kind of like it when it gets slow out there, it's easier to spread apart from others and since EVERYONE looks for reports, instead of making them, 90% of people miss out on the good days.
Only one of the boats fished the Wilson out of those two days. ( Sorry, Eric ) I leave my boat right next to it, so I may have been a bit lazy last week. Worked out, though... I think that plug take down in the last few feet of the tailout was one of my favorites....
The other few boats were on other rivers in Tillamook County. Grant Rilette, Eliot Jenkins, and Jamison, the last guide we wrangled up were all helping out. All local.
Cheers~
