What a big difference to drive half an hour to a fishing hole versus two hours. Don't get me wrong, it's definitely worth it to drive two hours to one of my favorite fishing places where I got my super powers, the Carson River! However, half an hour's drive to my other favorite place where the Pro got his powers - the American River - is awesome!

To prepare for today's trip, I decided to paint my own plugs and test them out in the American. I'm not a big fan of treble hooks, so they were replaced by single hooks. The gold painted plugs were cured for six days while the silver ones for five days. After 4 hours in the water, the silver plug started to peel. The gold plug was in the water for 2 hours and remained beautifully intact!

| What a crowded river... not! Video of salmon. |
Another beautiful day of pulling plugs, but no takers this time. We pulled plugs from 11 am until 3 pm.
