I saw 2 fish fighting each other. One of the fish looked like it was about to die. It was swimming in a wobbly way. But he was the one starting the fight with the other buck. At one point a 3rd buck showed up. But he then left. So as these 2 fish were fighting the smaller healthier buck kept trying to bite my spinner, but missed. So shortly after. I put on my fly and hooked the smaller fish. He ran into a log and wrapped himself up so good that my line broke. So the other beat up buck was still sitting there. So I took some casts and he did not even bother to hit. After that I started jigging the Mepps and finally he flat out nailed it good! This fish also tried to go into the log, but I was able to stop him. I can't believe this beat up wobbly swimming Coho was aggressive enough to fight another buck and then hit my Mepps still.
