I actually live closer to that (south side) access and changed my mind at the last minute.

Wow ! I had no idea, and I thank you for the education. I started off with a jig under a bobber , and after about a dozen casts , i managed to hook the only bush in the water. That is when i picked up my other rod and bounced the pink plastic worm. Again thank you and will stick with jigs and...

I took a 2 year vacation from chrome to hone my fly fishing and digital photography. Today it all came back as I dusted off the big rods and started up the trail to cast for steelhead. Now mind you the vacation also let me forget the correct path once inside the woods. Long story short ,I missed...

My much better half is in charge of the kitchen at a farm store south of wilsonville. Every day she cranks out dozens of pumpkin and apple cider doughnuts, cookies, pies and her signature kaluah cakes. My waist line is grateful she does not bring her baking left overs home but the scratch soups...

I noticed on the odfw website that they had stocked ponds 3 and 6 with 700 2 1/2 pound rainbows. I gave it a try but only landed 3 12 inchers. I did see a couple dozen big boys pulled in. The fog was heavy when I arrived but when the sun first started burning through the bite was on. Small...

Greetings to all in the S.W. My best friend and I camped at Crane prairie this summer with our toons and did the high lakes for 5 days. For next year I m thinking about a toon camp down the umpqua or the ? river. Is this worth it? Are there any chrome runs then? If it were doable I...
