Tim Beeze, Mike Goldenberg, Craig Peterson, and myself met up with Matt Pederson (www.RamblingReports.com) this past weekend. The four of us drove over 800 miles in less than 60 hours in hopes of catching some lake run brown trout. The fishing was definitely different than what I expected – and I felt like a foreigner in my own country (at times we were the only ones on the stream speaking English). Only one lake run brown was caught (by Mr. Beeze) but I managed to “catch” (although beit a foul-hook) a small coho salmon and Tim did foul hook a very fun king salmon. It was weird for sure — and the strip clubs aren’t near as much fun as on the east side. But it was a good trip and one that we will be doing again in October.
