    The only other spot to try is Robe river, flyfishing only.  We had trouble finding the river until we came across an older guy riding a bike with a white pitbull along side, ..he showed us where to go.

The river was mobbed with half dead and spawning pink salmon (above).  I had never seen so many fish in such a small river. 

I witnessed a National Geographic moment as well.....
    ..The male pinks were fighting each other, over one female, rainbows were zigzagging in and out snatching up eggs and getting chased out, then larger grayling were fighting with the pinks after snatching eggs themselves.  Awesome!

I tried targeting some of the larger rainbows, but they weren't interested. 

On to Robe Lake.
