Isn't Don Greene a terrific shop owner?!!! (I introduced Lil Salmon to Don yesterday).

Good job Lil, they spin and they hooked a fish! POIFECT!!!

Congradulations on hooking a fish with a hand made lure! I've recently started tying flies and cant wait till I look up on one of my hand made flies!


Troutdude:He has always been very friendly to me, and has resonable pricing!

I love the Shack....Don is very nice and is very willing to talk and give advice and hints and tips...I am ready to go back...I am in so much trouble when I get my distribution......

If it hadn't been for bigsteel I would have missed the Expo...today I went out in my back yard and played around with my new rod....Sweeeet (for a beginner)...problem is no body stocked my yard with trout Whats up with that. Hope my Okuma (sp) doesn't feel left out...have a feeling I will be neglecting it for awhile...

They actually had combos for $40 but of course I missed those. I got mine for $90: Cortland reel with line and a "Double J" dont know who makes it. If I got ripped off.....no body need tell me that... cuz I am feeling mighty happy.... and....my spinners spin...and.....camping at Prineville....yesssss

Great fishin to you all!!!!!

What? No trout stocked in your backyard? I'm gonna file a complaint with my Congressman!

While you are in the Prineville area, you might want to try the Crooked River. I once nearly landed a 20+ inch 'bow there (about 34 years ago). Got it all of the way up to my feet and it got loose! I believe that the river is open year around for FLY fishing (maybe spinners, but you'll need to check the reg's on that). I know that you CANNOT use bait until late May.

CAUTION: BE WARY OF RATTLE SNAKES! They like water and shady spots and crevices.

Good luck!
