Stillaguamish River at Arlington - Flood Fishing!

Post by Mike Carey » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:48 pm

We knew the water would be high and dirty but sure didn't expect it to come up 4 feet in 3 hrs. Kinda puts the bite off things...

I know! We need to rig a pully system on the side so we can pull the boats back up and run it 2 or 3 times in a day! :cheers:

At flood stage? What a great learning experience that would be :pirat:
Towing my lil toon up that with the sled would be a harrowing experience for whoever we duct taped into the seat [woot]
Though I don't know about towing that tank of yours upstream [crying]

Amx, when I noticed it they said the river was so fast they time warped, or some such thing.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.
