Portneuf River

[prvrt]

Headed down to the Portneuf River today since I have not fished it for many years and [url "mailto:F@G"][/url][url "mailto:F@G"]F@G[/url] said in there report the fishing was "Excellent". [:/] I should have known better than to believe the report. I fished from a few miles below Lava, around the steel tressel bridge on the hiway, the waterfalls, just above McCammon, over by Inkom, and just south of Poky. Nothing at all. No bites, no fish jumping. It was like the dead zone. I tried streamers, leeches, midges, nymphs, cronomid, and even threw in a worm here and there on the other pole. Nothing. I got skunked for the first time this year. Not even a sucker. [frown] The water was green and dirty but looked about normal on the level. I could not even tell you how many flip flops and pop/water bottles I seen in the river. I use to enjoy fishing this river, but after today I think I will find some where else to play.
