great shots. as for the shoulder to shoulder and rune manners...i hear that, i dont even bother fishing until opener and even then im going to spots where i would be amazed if i saw more than 1-2 groups of people.
the biggest fishing D bags are out at these times and they are not even fishing if you ask me...same with when the salmon run starts, its a joke. snagging, garbage everywhere, row bags here and there, dead fishing laying around the sides of the banks rotting away stinking up the area.
last year at B in Oakville i saw 2 guys standing at a narrow part of the creek where the fish would struggle to get by them trying to make a run upstream and they are sitting there with 2-3 inches of line from the tip of their 9 ft rods and trying to snag the fish in the face as they swim up river.
called them out on it and they just ignored me and told me to F off.
pathetic!
anyhow, sorry for the rant....love those pics and i cant wait to get out!!
