Freddy just returned home last weekend from the Elwha. The bridge is done and the access beneath (currently only down stream) is open. The water was off color due to snow melt and heavy rain. Fish were tough to locate but an occassional head raised. Can't report any "torpedos" this year due to stained water. Took a ride down to the lower river and was surprised to have the place to myself. It was late in the day and a few big fish had pushed in with the tide. A harbour seal cruised their shadows. Took a few casts but relucantly had to head back before any takedowns. Will spend more time on the great river next year.

LOVE, FREDDY...more

Freddy's heading up there later this week. Gonna check out the construction and so forth and hope to post a glowing report on the mighty Elwha. LOVE, Freddy...more
