Klamath report (non yak)

There seems to be a good number of fish in the Klamath guides were doing well from what i had seen.  I messed around the first day looking for a bait shop and scoping out the river and hit the mouth in the evening for no fish the action seemed to be hit or miss depending how many fish would be entering the river on that tide, people catch fish there but i would suggest staying up river unless you are trolling in your yak, its quite a seen down there., there were about 5 people walked away with fish out of 50. the next day i decided to head up river and bottom bounce egg sacks.  I hooked up 3 times in about 4 hours.  the first one i had my drag super tight from pulling out a snag and the fish broke the line by the time i figured out that it wasn't another snag....the other 2 i blame my hook set lost the both within a few mins.  ill be back on the river ASAP and hopefully ill have some pics to go along with a report

Thanks for the report Jake. Goodluck on your second try.
