Re: Lower Vedder pinks
Went up the Vedder from Noon till 5pm. went to keith wilson, water is very clear, one guy was fishing there but I told him I couldn't see any fish sitting in the hole from the top of the bridge. Walked down a couple of hundred yards, and check out a few other holes, everything was clear but no fish surfacing. The water needs to drop a few more feet before the gong show starts in a few weeks.
Drove up to Allison pool, looked around and saw nothing sitting in the hole. So drove up to "slaughter hole" and saw a bunch of people there. Watched for a bit and saw a bunch of dark Springs moving around with my polarized glasses so decided to throw a few casts. These things weren't really biting they looked tired. I tossed it across the river where I saw seven of them with a short float, and I hooked up probably a 40lbr. It jumped twice everyone goes "woah", it scared the lot of them down the river, and I lost it as it went down the rapids. I only saw 2 of these things landed. Then I took off for the day.
Coming back over Keith Wilson, I saw two guys wading in the water with their flyrods. But I didn't stop. Had my fun for the day. I'll come back in a couple of weeks.
