Chum 8888 and I also gave it a go at first light. We managed to each hook about a half dozen fish and I landed this nice chrome bullet that weighed 16 pounds gutted.

My "mentor" also joined us a bit later and he tagged into a couple of chrome bars. He had one bend his no. 4 gammy right at the beach and pop goes the hook!

Chum 8888 is going to be curing up some smokin' roe! Hook & Britguy - you met Chum 8888 last week..and yes, I landed her on 10 lb flurocarbon (you'd think I'd learn my lesson by now). Btw - water was in nice shape - but the rain started coming down in the afternoon. Hope the visibility stays OK...

that's a beauty FFM.....sounds like guys had a blast eace:

 

[Flyfishin Magician]

Cheers guys. Yes, that is probably one of the cleanest springs I've ever landed from that river. That's the beauty of fishing the early season! Btw - I haven't seen a ton of spring jacks around. Just a few landed here and there. Anyone else seen any in good numbers?

7 or 8 days ago I saw so many, and so many were landed also by others. yesterday, however, I saw only one hooked and landed.

not like the last couple of weeks we've been hitting them like mad.....just the other day i noticed a lot of big bruisers around now ;D

 

[young gun]

good, playing tackle busters is fun

 

[HOOK]

ya i also havent seen alot of jacks around but i did get one today along with a bunch of bigger ones. the big big ones are slowing starting to show up now, saw 2 landed that were in the 30-40lb range. I think we will be seeing a bunch of those 50+lbers this year. those will be a panic on a pin reel :happy:
