Steve Franklin was surprised to learn last week that his top-secret spot is no longer a secret. Steve told Jim about the prime piece—complete with both a riffle and a dandy tailout—back in 2014. Since then it’s come to light that Jim told Harlan, who everyone in Forks knows can’t keep his mouth shut. “Oh, yeah, Harlan’s real chatty,” says Caitlyn, who pours mediocre coffees to groggy bobber-lobbers at the Express-O-Hole on HWY 101 and Calawah Way. According to Steve, who told Jim, who told Harlan, Harlan’s Facebook page shows a mint buck with that pointy, half-submerged rock in the background that everyone already knows marks Steve’s now-popular spot. “It’s hard to keep good secrets a secret these days, so I’m done,” says Steve, who’s currently collaborating with out-of-state flyfishing filmmaking upstart “Washington Wild” on a new project entitled Unicorns in the Mist.
