I made it back after a week of fishing for Salmon around Ellis. We fished from the bank and when we started the water was waist deep 2' off the shore. It dropped over a foot in the last week and is quite nice now. Fishing was up and down. One day would be hot, the next 2 or 3 days you could not buy a bite. Over all it was a great trip and I have plenty of tasty salmon to eat now.
I limited out on 2 days and hooked fish ever day. My goal was to break my record of 36" inches that I set last year. On Thursday I broke that record with a 38" male. I was quite content after that since I had caught a few 34" and now had a fulfilling week of salmon fishing. Went fishing Friday and landed 2 more 34" and then I hooked into a tank. The battle lasted about 30 mins, but in the end I won. A 42" female to top off a great week of fishing.
This is the reason I love living in Idaho.
