Kingman Wash 9/4/10

[chizzle]

Headed out to Kingman this morning and arrived around 5:30ish. Hiked along the right side and started fishing from the rock pile by 6:00am. The weather was pretty nice this early in the morning, cant say the same about late morning/afternoon lol. We chummed the water and started fishing with anchovies to no avail. I decided i would switch it up and tied on a Berkley 4" shad swimbait. On my second cast, i hooked up with a 2lber. I kept trying the swimbait for twenty mintues and finally it snapped off during a cast. I decided to go back to anchovies because my coworker also lost the one i lent him and i only had one left and i was tired after tossing it around for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes i landed a fat 1 lb striper. That was it for my day. My brother had a fish hooked, but it got away as he was pulling it onto the shore because nobody would grab the net and help him land it lol. My other friend also caught a 1 lber. Around 8:45am we call it quits and decide to set up camp because the temperature was beginning to rise quickly. The plan was to camp/fish until sunday around noon, but the heat was unbearable. It was too sunny/dusty outside of the tent, while too hot inside of the tent. So we end up packing away the tent around 1:00pm, after suffering through a few hours of the heat.
