    TR: Warrrshington silvers

    Had a good weekend at a spot I've fished for 20 years. The biggest one is a 16 lb hog that my gramps caught. Him and I have caught hundreds of fish in this spot over the years and this is the largest coho either of us have hooked there. What made it even more special is that he caught this fish just 2 months after breaking his neck and being choppered to Harborview. This may be the last season me and him get to fish together as his health is fading fast, if it is, Im glad he got to take the biggest fish!

    I'm happy that you and your gramps are spending some quality time doing what you love to do. Kudos to you guys.

    It looks like you got some quality slabs to eat.

    Nicely done, and it's always fun to get the old guy stoke, it's a part of the sport that I really love, how there isn't an age limit or physical limitation that can't be overcome with a nice hook up.

    We have been using various silver and red spinners for years. These fish were super fresh, it went from being really quiet out there to hundreds of bright chromers jumping all around our little zodiac within a matter of minutes. It really is a sight to see, especially by lower 48 standards.
