Such pretty fish! What part of the country are you from?

@Senkosam thanks for your posts. I definitely appreciate your posts and I always love seeing pictures!

I hit the Columbia out of Stevenson on Saturday the 7th for the first time in 3 weeks. High temp was forecast to be 90 but Sunday was supposed to be 5 degrees hotter so I picked the lesser of the two evils. I got to the river at first light and there was a bit of a breeze. I started throwing to...

I usually launch at Stevenson WA. Easy launch and good fishing both upstream and downstream. A bit further. There is good fishing close to every launch on the Bonnieville pool. I have read the fishing further upstream can be even better but I hate driving past fish to catch fish.

...unfortunately so were most of the trout :( I guess I should not complain since I did catch 24 trout but I would guess I missed at least 2 or 3 for every one that I caught. Plus add in the number I lost right at the kayak and it could have been a monster day but overall it was still a good...

I took off Friday to fish the Columbia because the weekend forecast was looking unfriendly. Whenever I do take a day off from work I always feel this extra pressure to try and have a good day. I was on the river and fishing by 6am. I thought I would be first to the ramp but there were a bunch of...

I hit the Columbia on Sunday the 11th. The wind forecast was supposed to be dicey so the plan was to spend most of the day in the slough downstream from the ramp a little ways. The wind lived up to its forecast and I was happy to fish (hide) from the wind pretty effectively for most of the day...

Good job getting some nice fish!

I wacky rig a 3" senko when things get tough.

There are days when downsizing is the way to make it happen. I think that is especially true in small, highly pressured waters. My version these days is to go to a 3" senko on days when I can't seem to buy a bite.

I think lures are just tools and some tools are better than others for certain applications. When smallmouth are chasing smolt a jerkbait, topwater or spy bait are very effective/efficient presentations. I think smaller plastics are effective/efficient on neutral or negative fish.

Your presentations are effective just like a Ned rig and the Charlie Brewer Do Nothin' style of fishing he popularized in the 70s. Small nothing looking plastics catch a lot of bass!

Awesome that you are spanking the springers! Hit me up and we can meet up for sure!

I had a planned procedure for my hand scheduled for Friday which meant no fishing for me this weekend, thus I decided I better take a day off of work and fish while I could. I decided to go to my favorite bass spot, Stevenson WA. I decided to go even though the wind forecast was a bit brisker...

Yours is a name I have not seen in a long time @Gettin' Jiggy Wid It ! How are you doing? Do you still fish out of your Nucanoe?
