I hear you... I've got to go to Seattle next weekend for a family reunion. It'll be nice to see everybody again, but thats 3 days of drownin' bugs down the tubes. So yeah, if we don't get a crapload of orders for wood at work before the 3rd week, I'll be spending at least 4 days up the river. Middle of the week you've pretty much got the place to yourself

I caught fish on Saturday with the Eldest Child (girl).
We fished the fabled McKenzie River, Oregon, with . . . . . .
salmon eggs and an Ugly stick . . ..

BTW-Most of the upper McKenzie is 100% stocked trout. They put about 16,000 fish in there EVERY MONTH in the summer.
We go to our secret hole and cast Salmon Eggs on a 3 foot 100% fluorocarbon leader, #10 hook, and a coupe of split shot where the leader and line tie in.
We cast upstream and left the eggs drift over a ledge.
BOOM! Fish on!.
Its an Eight Fish Hole. We took 3 home (10-12 inches) landed and released three, and had two spit out the hook before landing. These are her two "Keepers".
Then we went to the range and she shot my CZ 452.
Good days,
BMT

Good days indeed! Without stocked trout (or panfish) it would be a lot harder to get a kid hooked.

BMT,
Congrats on a great day with your daughter. That's a cool picture!
I have a 19 month old daughter and am looking forward to fishing trips as she gets older.
For now, I am cherishing her being a cute & funny toddler.

So, I clicked on p. 332 of this thread wondering how in Sam Hill it got to 332 pages. Now I see, it's not about the 7-08 vs. .308 anymore!

Laffin....
Somehow I'm glad Larry got the boot before we turned it into our summer fly-fishing thread. I don't know if I could handle the videos of him shooting 20 Lbs salmon with that 1st gen Ti in 7-08, then filleting them with a 48" bar Husky...
You know he'd have done it...
