I fished the Little Su this morning with two guests. We caught two fish backtrolling spin-n-glo's in one hole. The fish were in the low to mis 20 lb range, one was in good condition and the other fish was pretty red. There were several other fisherman on the river but we had the first two through the fish & game survey station for the day at 9:30 am. I saw on other guide with clients and he had at least one fish in the boat when I passed him. Another guide had ventured down river and I am not sure how he did, he was not back when I got to the landing. It appears that not many fresh fish are coming in and that the fish we are catching are either holding in the holes or residing there unbtil they spawn. I would speculate that as the week wears on it will become increasingly difficult to catch these fish in the Little Su. It was wet and raining steadily as we fished, that may make the bite last longer than it has during previous days due to the lack of sun falling on shallow and clear water conditions.
Yesterday the first Silver Salmon of the season was reported being caught on the Little Su. It will likely be two weeks before we can expect any numbers of significance in the river but hearing about the first Silver of the season is exciting none the less.
