5/6/25 Report

[snagged in outlet 3]

Back at it again today.   On the water at 6:45 done at 10:30.   Just a great time catching fish.  No browns again today.  A bunch of stout rainbows!   The longer one in the net was over 20”s.   LOTS of boats!    Nearly all guides.  What the heck is going on with these huge center consoles the guides are using.   A guy driving the Yamaha CC with 5 people in it just plowing massive wakes.   Ridiculous!!!    And the deep V Lunds doing the same.  🤷‍♂️.

Had a trip yesterday saw that boat it was huge, they where considerate with their wake with me, but other v bottom boats weren't . I still throw fixed indicators with longgg leaders in this flow, so my guys needed  to be up on the deck to cast. Some of the v bottoms don't mind their wake, can be sketchy with 16,000cfs flowing.  Fishing was good, even with the whole Armada pounding the same lanes with most probably scuds   Also, seems like most guides are considerate.   I feel bad for the River Run drift boats when it's busy, they can get knocked off anchor, so I try to throw as little wake when passing them.  

You can tell those Bow's are chonkers!

Surprisingly good fishing considering there were at least 20 boats running back and forth.   But dang!   Some guys couldn’t throw bigger wakes.
