Was there early this morning, not expecting anything although I did get all the lures and baits needed for salmon. a few guys got some roe (no idea if artificial or not). So far since they got there, no bites. Saw salmons swimming. Moved away closer to the beach and set up. As I was gearing up, saw 4 salmons swimming in the banks, very shallow you can see the fins sticking out of the water (is this normal?). First thing I could grab was a red vibrax spinner. tossed it 10 feet from the salmons reeling towards their sides...nope. started to move away then 3 cameback the same bank, tossed the vibrax again...still none. rigged fake salmon eggs with garlic marshmallow on the tip...salmon take a whiff...but didn't bite. had it floating right in front for 30 minutes. salmons just swim back and forth...not interested.
out of 7 anglers...not one bite...oh wait, one guy just got one. big one, i went for a closer look, he's about to land it, the salmon was caught on it's belly. with mallows on the hook. snapped his 8lb line.
tossed some cleos, j13, williams wobbler...almost the kitchen sink...but the salmon was more interested in swimming back and forth. I saw a lot of salmon activity now compared last year but still got skunked. i'm going back tomorrow. another day.
