Fishing continues strong. One boat reporting in at 21 salmon, what can one say about unlimited hook & release. It's now 17:00 hr and I have watched boat after boat landing salmon in front of our house and cottage all day, second boat reported 17 taken as of 15:00 hr. Boiestown, Hickey's and Bridge Pool are not reporting the success we are seeing in this area.
Report from area of Priceville Footbridge where one boat took 20 salmon, one fish recently struck by an eagle.
Most of the river boats we have in the water are putting in at Hickey Pool or Swazey's.
Unfortunately although we can manhandle a boat into the river with difficulty, there is no place to tie up due to the amount of shore ice. With the expected rise in water this creates potential for problems. The water is low enough to wade along the shore and fish, and you will take fish, but again the shore ice sliding into the river makes it too dangerous to take the chance , we have already heard of one person trapped underwater by deteriorating shore ice.
Frustrating to say the least, especially when we have to cancel more clients.
