SSSF Winter 2010 Group Float Photos

[Chinook SSSF]

For Winter 2010 we did our group float on the Sandy River again where last year we landed 5 fish for 6 boats. This season we had about a dozen boats but fish seemed harder to come by. Wheather was also once again super! Here are some of the photos I shot during the float while I took a drift with Ed Fast, Tom and 30 other SSSF members : )



A perfect January morning





I spent the morning hanging out with Ed and Tom. Great guys to spend a day with : )







Where in the world are we here, in the photo above? I bet you have looked up here before! On last the last Winter float I landed a dandy native hen in this spot : P



Firefish drove down from Washington to hang out with us! Glad you made it, pleasure to talk to you in person...



Tom caught the only fish in our boat, sorta : )



Another of my favorite spots in the Oxbow float




GW landed and released a nice native hen.. Congrats! Photo from GW, ty : P



Todd, Ed 'and who's the half face?' hanging at the take out



Wheather held for us and all things considered the water looked pretty good. A little low as mentioned by some. One of the guides with us I spoke to mentioned that most of the brat ball had gone through already and we would be looking for natives next. There was a few hookups and one member 'GW' landed and released a nice winter hen.

An enjoyable day on the Sandy See you guys again soon!

Great pics Matt! Half face? I'm guessing it's RyanK? Again, it was a beautiful day on the river with a great group of fishermen! Looking forward to the next group float and maybe hooking up with some of you to go chase some chrome before then.

Yarnie and eggs. We hooked two on that setup, but someone snuck some owner cutting points on the boat and suprise suprise, that fish came unpinned.
