    Pre storm steel

    I hit the same river today and no love for me. But boy was the river crazy packed for a Wednesday!!! I am hoping it was just because the other rivers around were not as fishable and not a preview of what it is going to be like the rest of the year.

    Crazy catch!

    I was trolling for trout at Clear Lake and got one on. But when I brought it closer to the boat something didn't look quite right. It took a moment, but then I realized that my lure didn't actually hook the fish - it hooked the end of a piece of line that was hooked to a fish!!! It is hard to...

    South Santiam springers

    For as many fish as there should be around right now, the fishing has been horrible. Way worse than last year at this time and there have been way more fish over the falls. Not sure what's going on.

    Trolling direction

    If I have a little 9 ft boat with a 55lb electric motor is that enough to be able to go upriver in the Multnomah Channel?

    My pontoon 10LB steelhead video

    That was basically the first time I've tried using the pontoon from the river. I caught the fish while backtrolling but, I did some fishing from the bank too. I was on the Alsea and I didn't really do much navigating as I was told it was a fairly easy stretch and I just sort of went with it.

    My pontoon 10LB steelhead video

    Thank you Dana! And yes, there was a lot of heavy breathing going on there. But it sure was a heck of a fight!

    Poll: Fish per trip

    I expect to catch fish every time I go out. Unfortunately, I am let down about 30-40% of the time.

    Poachers at EE Wilson!

    Putting food on the table is not an excuse. There is no shortage of food at our local food banks. Subsistence hunting/fishing needs to have its rules too... watch this: http://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/yukon-men/videos/the-fish-wheel/ And they wonder why the runs in the Yukon are in...

    Kokanee question

    I've never fished for Kokanee before, but have been watching some videos about it. It looks like everyone uses dodgers a foot or two above their lure of choice. How important is that? It seems like it would impact the fun of the fight. When trout fishing, I've never liked using pop gear or...

    Poachers at EE Wilson!

    Even if it isn't the end of the world for folks to take stocked trout early, it's still a pretty jerk-ish thing to do. Like a guy blatantly cutting in line and not seeming to care about it. I love America, but we do have a ton of selfish people in this country.
