Poll: Fish per trip

[rogerdodger]

It all depends. When and where.

Coho-Usually like 80-90%
Steelhead-90% at the coast, 40% on Clack and Sandy
Fall Nook-50% of times.
Springers 60-70%

All these could be adjusted by only fishing the right conditions vs fishing every chance you get. IMO opinion of course

but what about Siuslaw Fall Nooks?....2014 that is...I expect you to be 100% in 2015! eace:

Awesome responses. Thanks everyone. Obviously..... I have a lot of work to do. I generally crawl up and down the same section of the same river so ... I obviously need to familiarize myself with more water. Keep the numbers coming.....

I've made 10 trips and have gone 8/10. Only had one day where I didn't touch a fish. My first two trips of the year I broke off hawgs on 8lb mono in low water, since I've switched to 10lb floro and have been 8/8. 7 hatchery fish and 1 Nate. Right before the rain my dad got a 10lb chromer with beautiful skeins, but the meat was white and old. Any guesses as to why would be helpful. Kinda makes me not want to keep fish cause I don't want to waste a slot on my tag, even though its time for a hatchery tag now.

For winter steelhead, I don't get to go out that much, they're really not my fish...
Out of 3 trips this year, I'm 0/2.
Lost both on flies.
When I go winter steelheading, I don't count on catching anything, I do count on learning, though. When I get a fish, though, it's nice.
With summer steelhead, yes I plan on catching fish.

Definitely a lot of factors and variation on any give day. But my last 6 trips (in a drift boat) have been 6, 8, 6, 3, 1 and the last trip was a skunk. The last one was my first skunk in well over a year, I knew I shouldn't have brought my fiancé along LOL!

Hens dump all their nutrients into their eggs making them not as good table fare most of the time. The bucks will cut nice even after being in the river for a while. There is no way to tell if a hen will cut nice or not. I've had chromers cut beautifully and then another chrome will cut pale. At least you got some good eggs and fertilizer!! That's my attitude about it anyways.

I charge double for those days, Jamie. : D

I'll take you up on that Tanner, but you don't charge me and pay my gas if we get skunked

 

[OnTheDrop]

Deal ^^^

 

[jamisonace]

Yeah, but by skunked he means less than 20.

I'll take you up on that Tanner, but you don't charge me and pay my gas if we get skunked

 

[steelhead_slayer]

I'll book you for a 20+ day. Haha

Put me on That trip too. You, me, and Jaime would put a hurting on some fish.

^^Uhh don't forget the camera man in seat 4

Wait till we drop this video were working on.

 

[bubs]

6 day trips in 2015 so far....4/6. Sandy skunked me twice, the coast has been 100%, this will change, i think

The interesting part? ~85% wild fish

With you in the boat we wouldn't miss a fish in that river. :thumb: I look forward to the video

 

[EOBOY]

I sort of hate you a little bit right now

2labs I was with Tanner on one of those 20+ days we boated 5 so the ratio was 1/4 or so. Part of the reason we lost so many was probably because I was learning what to do. Going again tomorrow we'll see if the magic continues. But I have faith in Tanner. And even if we don't catch anything I get to spend the Day with Tanner and Bennie.
