Fished from 7AM until 8:50 AM using a combination of a Copper John and a San Juan worm. Caught nine stocked BT and RT, lost one. No other anglers. Water clear and 62 deg F. Flow excellent for fishing. Good sulphur hatch at dark last evening. Found a second sea lamprey redd today.

Nice report, Mike.
Your report got me curious about lamprey redds.
Found this video of them building one.

Thanks Afish. That was interesting. It shows the impressive sizes of cobble that these fish can move in comparison to their body and head sizes. Sea lampreys are larger of course, so the cobbles moved are even bigger. It's quite a task and the piles that the sea lampreys build are almost a foot higher than the surrounding stream bottom.
