Slow Day on the Sac

T50 Salmon Slayer
With the high temp in the 70s this weekend and overcast skies, I was anticipating some good action on the water.   I wasn't completely disappointed, but it certainly wasn't anything epic.   My first cast landed a SM on a spoon which turned out to be the only fish I put in the boat.   I had a few bits, and marked many fish, but no real takers.   The real excitement came in the form of a snagged tree limb I drug to the boat to retrieve my lodged brass, amongst the sticks was a wad of grass that contained a T50 Kwickfish, sardine wrap and all.  With Salmon season opener in 6 days, I'll take all of the fresh gear I can.   Its a bit scary that someone was poaching Salmon a little early, but at least I know that the areas I intend to fish for Salmon caught the attention of other anglers.
