Coho Ho!

There were, indeed, three Kings (lacking gold, frankincense and myrrh) just downstream of the bridge at Devil's Gulch, but the bigger fish don't make it much further up the watershed than that. These are two Coho salmon in the creek just down the road from us, the female (with the white tail) digging a redd, the male waiting for his chance.

On Thursday afternoon we saw some genuine classic salmon jumping up waterfalls action at the Inkwells, but by Saturday the water had gone down enough that they weren't moving upstream. Next big rain, though, we'll be camped out on that bridge.
