i have never been to the skook before and was wondering how to get there what are good holes and if it is doing any good right know i was going to hit it this weekend but need reports

there once was a guy named steelheadfisher
who posted about a famous zipper
so we pulled out his tounge
and slapped it with dung
and tied it around his pecker

PH-

I hate to say it, but this poetry thing really seems to be catching on!

i just wanted to know some info so pleeze dont be mean about it someone can email it to me at sasy_xxxman@yahoo.com

slow fishing, crowded, and high water

Delete this topic now.

Guys,

When I first got on this board, I made the unpardonable sin of asking about someones personal zipper stream. Instead of roasting me, someone was nice enough to explain what was happening by email and gave me information I was looking for in return for my consideration. Because of his kindness I not only learned something but I made a great new friend who later invited me to join him at one of his secret fishing holes. Why not send that email and make a friend.

Thanks again GS.

Steelheadfisher, you're new to the board, so you only got slightly flamed. It is considered very poor etiqute to ask about small rivers that don't need the added pressure. You might want to follow the suggestion of deleting the topic.
Tight lines,
F4S

why should i delete this topic i asked for a report on a river thats what this bored is for if im not mistaken

the fact that people wont reply should tell you something.
I would just say that you can now see the attitude of most people on this board and you have learned something. Go fish it and good luck.

Mooch,

Well said Sir. I had a similar experience more recently when I came aboard. Somebody was graceful enough to share a tid-bit or to,...atleast enough to get me excited but still giving me sense of adventure and exploration.
I'm just thankful (and lucky I guess) it happened that way.... I had not read the Ten Commandments of the board yet.....
Good Fishing, Darin

Geez this kina response almost gives me the urge to become a reporter for fishing and hunting lies magazine and do a big ol article for them on the skook. Wouldn't that get your panties in a bunch.
I guess I'll go fetch myself a nice cold one and think about it a little before I do.

I wouldn't do that but you guys with a chip on your shoulder deserve it. Happened to my favorite waters. More people on yours less on mine. Hmmm never thought about the other guy getting shafted. All waters are fragile when Seattle comes bebopping down here to go fishing.

Everytime this "zipper" thing comes up, say, once a week, it always seems that the best advice is to just ignore the thread. It will be off the page in a matter of hours.

Instead, folks keep bringing it back to the top, making it stay there longer and longer.

"Let sleeping dogs lie"...

Fish on...

P.S. Is the Skook REALLY a zipper?

Steelheadfisher the skook has many good holes. I ve had good luck using very light gear and small baits, also if your a bobber fishermen this river really has awsome water. My first chioce would be to start out toward Buccoda by the dam many excellent holes. From the dam work your way down, put your backpack on and walk to the back of the of some of the public use lands there are some really nice holes back there. Also good water down by the mouth were it dumps into the Chehalis, which is over behind the ball fields in centraila{Borist park }and some descet hole behind Godfathers pizza At Riverside park in downtown centraila.Hope this helps.

What a bunch of jerks!!!! If I hear these holyier than thou a-holes one more time I'm going to puke! Lets all just roast this guy for asking a simple question.Good response, now this subject will get even more attention.Maybe I'll take a road trip and check it out too. Seems like if someone has some secret spot to hide it would be better not to respnd at all than to roast a newbie for asking for help. Hope others that feel like me decide to check it out to!!!! Skoocumckuk, right?? HMMM yep see you on the water.(hope the jerk falls in!)

Steelyman,

I'm rolling! That was a hillarious response....I think I might go down there too!

Good Fishing, Darin

Ever here of not responding??? zipperlip?? what my kid reads about a stream we cross everytime we go bowhunting, and this is the response???
