May 19th was cloudy and chilly, but I decided to go anyway. caught one salmon, nice 4 lb fish. used a spoon and it worked alright. was kinda slow overall but the peace of the river makes it all worth it. sometimes just the thrill of the catch is enough!
went back on May 16th, weather was iffy with some patchy rain but I kept at it. only managed to catch 2 salmon but they were decent size, around 6 lbs each. something about the sound of rain makes fishing nice, just chill vibes. used my trusty old baitcaster.
hit the river on May 4th, it was overcast and a bit windy. not the best but i still hooked a 5 lb salmon! tried out a new lure, silver and blue, and it did the trick. caught few more too, just took longer. still a fun day!
fishing on May 3rd was awesome! bright and sunny, caught 4 salmon, biggest was 7 lbs. i was using a salmon egg rig, worked like a charm. weather was nice and warm, felt good to be out there again. gotta love spring fishing!
