...just joking, seriously.
I did that same trip in that same Motel by myself about a decade ago.
I made it a February trip looking for fish that have been driven up the river by the cold, but I didn't have enough success to Warrant trying it again.
Looks like you had a good trip!:clap:

I need to start back fishing there again. Last time I fished it the limit on trout was 50 per person and reds were trash fish. We brought many a trout and black sea bass outa there.

Yeah I can’t figure out how to catch them in the river.

I still don’t think reds taste all that great. At least not enough to target them. Love trout and sea bass though.

Back in the day when we could keep the 12-14" reds, those were some good eating fish.

If they trash to you Nick, let me know when you want to throw out the trash next time. :bounce:

Don’t know what that is.

Filet each side leaving the skin and scales on. Soak in Italian dressing, I like zesty, about half hour.
Fire up the coals. When they turn white lay the filet on the grill scale side down.
Cook until done. Test the meat with a fork. Most time the scales get burnt.
Serve on a plate scales down along with your favorite sides.

This also is good just using some Cajun seasoning without the soaking.

Great Chowder fish. Firm flesh holds together real nice.
Google Alaskan Fisherman's Soup..It's proper for Reds.
