PM below Scottville

Hey Phish you were right. There definetly was a "Criminal Element" in that stretch of river. Everybody was force-feeding the fish. Most of them were from out-of state and have been going there for many years. The "narrows" a couple of miles downsteam had Snaggers camped at every bend. Did manage to get into fish pulling Ping a tees with the Drift-boat. I think I was a minority fishing legally. But on a positive note, there were a lot of fish.

And people wonder why salmon don't want to bite. Next year you should try that section before the hieght of the season. It's a hit or miss kind of thing, but it can be real rewarding if you do get in on a fresh run. The snaggers pretty much take over around labor day week end, so if you get there a bit earlier then that you can sometimes even have a killer spot all to your self. I've floated that whole section from scottsville to PM lake. A person could get lost in there during high water. Sure wish the DNR would take a little more action in that stretch. Kind of gives me a sick feeling in my stomach when I see what people are doing to it!
Tight lines to you shoe man!
