Timing

My timing is off this year. During the best weekends of the year to catch fish in the saltwater I was off at Oshkosh with my data. July found my on the Cowlitz too high to fish with a fly rod. October found me on the Kalama hooking a dark Coho but not bringing it to hand and November found me in Hood Canal a week after the height of the chum run. So now here I sit thinking about the fact that I passed by the late winter coho run for the most part so that I could do some lake fishing (only one small trout).

My salvation this year will be in the Winter steelhead! Wynoochee in Jan and Feb and the Cowlitz in late Dec early Jan. Jigs, eggs, corkies and hopefully a sinking fly line. Lets hope my timing is a bit better this Winter...
