Took a trip to the Sandy after work. Talked to a few guys that had fished in the morning and they said several fish were taken early. I didn't arrive till after three, but the level had dropped some and the color was good I felt good about the evening bite. I fished several presentations from jigs, to roe and a corkie, and a couple spinners with only one takedown on a pink corkie and a white piece of yarn that failed to hook up. I packed up and went closer to cedar creek and tried again. Now it's just before dusk and my 3rd cast with a pink and purple jig, doused with a little anise/krill scent, I hooked up with a nice slab!! After the hookset it took off jumped once then peeled off about 30 yards of line jumped again, then SNAP...and I ended up treeing my bobber and weight...upon further investigation my leader snapped right in the middle...must have had a knick. Note to self* check your leader more often. Grrrr. I did see one Nate landed and released about an hour before sunset also. Fish are bitin'!! gonna head out again in the morning...with nice fresh leaders!
