The fog lifted to reveal a placid Merwin today. Despite some lingering motor difficulties I managed to boat 2 kokes (11 and 13") between 9-10:00 a.m. I had a few other strikes earlier in the morning but stopped at two fish because only me and my daughter eat my catch. I saw another angler loose a nice fish that was rolling on the surface when she began pumping her rod as she reeled. A keypoint for new silver fishermen keep the rod tip up and tension on the line, the fish have soft mouths and will toss a hook if there is slack.

So true on the slack. My wife sets the hook all the way to 3 o-clock and misses fish every time. She will never learn.
