5/02 Clackamas River report.

osmosis · 05-02-2008, 02:09 PM

Fished 5 hours this morning with two friends on the Clackamas. We were in a sled in the upper river (between carver and barton).
We managed one Wild Chinook jack at 20-22", that was released before a photo op' to minimize stress.
Chrome bright as they get for clackamas fish too, unfortunate it was wild!

Also landed one adult late Winter Steelhead hen.

Missed one or two other fish too. Get out there and fish - It only gets better for chinook from here - and there are plenty of steelhead in the river.

This is the keeper for the day.
This fish is on my traeger as we speak.

It has a bit of color, but it's gonna be delicious

Nice fish. I just got home from the Sandy, Dodge Park area. No fish and no one else catching. Water was in good condition. The State Game Officer was there. Of course he told me I sould be over on the Clackamas. He said they were catching some over there. He must have been talking about you! He also said the Willamette was getting some pressure.

Sorry to hear that you didn't find any fish today. The sandy should still have some too, I'm suprised theres nothing going on..
The water was great on the clack today too.

out of everyone we asked, we were the only boat that caught fish. right place at the right time I guess.
