Aaaaa Zazooooosh! Big Blackfish Blitz - Eeeeeeeee.....
 

I got tired of trout and schoolies so I thought I'd try to catch some fresh fish and chips for Sunday dinner until the big girls show up for the dance later on....

Hit a good spring spot this AM and got my limit on to-tos - 3 nice chinners - a pair of 5.8 lb twins and a 7 lb slob on sandworms.

They were rolling around like trout on the surface, tail-slapping and doing the spawning shimarita - man, were they hungry after it was over - I guess blackfish don't relax with a smoke afterwards :smokin:

It was a beautiful morning - to me anyway - dense fog, the river was as still as glass and crystal clear, big lion's mane jellyfish driftin' by while I waded. It was so quiet I felt I had to say excuse me after pharting in the water - I think someone mighta heard me at Taylor's.

Life is good....

Hey, could you please pass me the vinegah? :)

A little more blackfish stew with extra vermouth anybody? :p

'Nother beer? :cheers:

Gilly? Milo? Tattoo?

Blackfish Stew!?!?!?!?!?!?


YUMMMMYYYYY:drool:

wade fishing for blackfish?? your hardcore there crafty:laughs:

Crafty if I see you wading to my spots on November.. then you be nuts... (and probably dead :D) Nice fish...

Yeah, I know, Bry - if it's where I think it is I'm gonna find my hat floating if I try to wade it.

I'm gonna call the famous Irish marine biologist Professor O'Nitis to see if he can tell me what's up with spawning behaviour - I mean, outside the obvious. :smash:

Uncle Timmy oughta be able to answer a coupla arcane questions I would think.

Besides, I wanna take a trip to Weatherill to see my tax dollars at work, see if I can wrangle an AM cruise on the RV Chafee :tooth:

I'm gonna bait him with an 1865 copy of an Agassiz book outta my collection - that oughta do it :p

That or cold beer... either one should work... say hi to Lingo.. his slaves I mean interns should be disecting last year's blackfish racks as we speak.... :D

:laughs:

..bout time you got down there Chuck ;)

I hope you brought your elbow pads :D........or sciccors if you were wading amongst the close-lines......

Nah Gilly, I was elsewhere - ;)

Hey, we oughta get together and go down there for an AM session if you're free - PM me if you are, I'm ready to go again.

Mult peixe grande...

Whew - Bry! Last year's racks - sorta takes the romance outta a career in Marine Biology, don't it? :yak5:
