    Looking for fishing buddy

    Welcome! Another fellow Eugene-ian here. Been chasing our elusive native winters pretty obsessively lately--I usually out on the water at least once each weekend. Relatively new to the Northwest and always happy to have a partner in crime--yourself included. Probably headed back down to the...

    Good day on the Mackenzie yesterday

    Been putting in my hours ... at least a couple trips to the river each week since I moved down from Toronto back in April, but the big water out meant re-learning most of what I knew from fishing the much more visual lake Ontatio tribs. I'm not even sure I was at exactly the hole you mentioned...
