Its been a fun spring with weird weather, high water, and exceptional fishing for sure. I had a hard time getting excited about springer’s this year and kept my focus on the terrific steelhead fishing we have had all year. Seemed like the winter fish just kept coming with a nice transition right into summer fish without even a break in the action. It was so good in fact that I even re-powered my sled in the middle of springer season because I would rather be in the drift boat. You heard me right a complete remodel of the sled! New Mercury with jet, diamond plate floors, and a few other trick upgrades. I wanted a fresh start to my Cowlitz season and continue this steelhead streak all summer with no issues. Lots of bad fishing reports of no steelhead and high water has made my outings very enjoyable and fishy. Last weekend I had a very popular Washington trib all to myself! Yes I said weekend…Keep that bad reports circling because I like the great fishing all to myself!
