  After chasing this spunky 11 + lb Springer over the sand bar and up  the creek Steve Theberge landed his first springer for the 2008 season
Steve  was using his "Scottie" hybrid with a white skirt
(or should we say kilt)
Break out the bag pipes, the Scottie does it again!
It sure looks bigger  than 11  lbs  
        
Finally a KEEPER!!! 15 lbs
Caught May 21, on a red and white, well used, very beat up and duct taped "Scotty" Spinner!
I'm calling Jerry
"SURVIVOR"
He out waded, out casted and out lasted everyone at the creek today!

And here's his reward!!!
This 25 lb beauty was caught on a #14 Florescent Orange Lure
at low water.

Jerry says "Just another Silly Salmon" falling for one of Steve's FishieOn Lures..
Way to go JERRY!!!!
