Going to Wickiup, this weekend

I also hooked into something huge, ( I assume ) that broke off after a thirty minute fight; never got a look at him, but I'm a assuming he was a Brown, since he kept diving for the bottom, again and again. The whole time I had him on, I had the sinking feeling that I'd bitten off more than I could chew with this fish. I could barely get him to move, even when he wasn't fighting me.

that still has to feel good. were you using a fly rod or spinning outfit?

Spinning outfit. I was trolling with a worm/slip sinker rig. And you're right, it felt very good.

And besides...a beautiful fall day on Wickiup, no crowds, and the fish are hitting. How can that not be good day?

This is going to be my last trip to Wick for this year. ( I want to try and get to Diamond before it closes. )
