Today @ The Skagit

[DannyLeslie]

Go there about 6am. This was my third time out this year for sockeye. I had been skunked the first two tries. Well today I finally landed my first buck sockeye! Now I see people say orange is the color.. May very well be but I found something else works to. Take a plain silver dick nite, some pink yarn and a sand shrimp. Toss that baby out let er drift and BANG! Fish on! First cast of the day too. I have photos on my iphone but not sure how to transfer them to here. If I figure it out ill post pics.

You can send the photos to your email account, and then save them to your pictures.

Nicely Done! may I ask what area you were fishing? thinking about banking it this weekend.

For the two people who were wondering how to get a sand shrimp on a dick nite it's not that hard. Put the hook thru the middle of the shrimp, then the head of the shrimp then the tail.



Btw, this is DannyLeslie. Not sure why I couldent log on my other account.


Don't knock it till you try it. Worked for me
