    Electric Boat Motor Suggestions?

    You could also consider a propane outboard. I believe they burn quite cleanly.

    Breaking in a New Rod in a BIG Way!

    I hit the Columbia out of Stevenson Wa on Saturday. I was excited to get out and try my new fishing rod. I told my wife I was going to buy a new rod for my birthday and she said "Oh, is that what I am getting you this year :)". That's a wife who understands you! I got to the river and since it...

    Giant 21Inch 5Lb Columbia River Smallmouth!

    What a great day! I met up with Michael Jarvis (https://www.youtube.com/@MichaelJarvisFishing), I got to see a family of otters, and as the tile indicates, I caught a giant!! I got to the river a while before Mike and fished around the ramp area waiting for him to show up. It was actually quite...

    Grinding Out Some Quality Smallmouth In The Wind!

    I hit the Columbia out of Stevenson on the 31st and was a bit dismayed to find out there was a 20 boat bass tournament launching from across the river. Made for a tough day of fishing behind people and not getting to fish spots that I wanted to. I am generally pretty spoiled about having large...

    The bass were being real jerks!!

    I hit the Columbia on Sunday and conditions were pretty ideal. There was wind and cloud cover and I knew that would have the big bass feeding. I started fishing the first point near the ramp and within a handful of casts I had a bass just stop my spinnerbait dead. I heaved back and it was on...

    The Bass were Destroying my Spinnerbait!!

    I hit the Columbia on Friday the 14th and it ended up being an awesome day! I caught 55 bass and at least 30 of those came on the old spinnerbait! I love a good spinnerbait bite and this day delivered that in a big way. My best 5 went 16lb 2oz and 94.5". Two of the bass went 20" and weighed 3lb...

    The Bigs were Biting... for my Friend Mike!

    I hit the Columbia on Sunday the 9th with my friend Mike (https://www.youtube.com/@MichaelJarvisFishing). I got to the water well before Mike and the wind was already whipping pretty good at 16-20mph. Of course the wind only builds during the day in in the afternoon it was blowing 25-30mph. That...

    Monster Day: 99", 17lb 13oz bag of summer smallmouth!!

    What a day! That is a new PB for me for length for a bag of smallmouth but well short of my best bag for weight (19lb 6oz). It was a funny day of lots of dinks but occasionally lightning would strike and I would land a good one. I started the day throwing a Sammy (walking bait) and did pretty...

    Walleye fishing in the Willamette River south of St Johns bridge to mouth.

    I think Multnomah channel would be a better bet for walleye. There is a lot walleye fishing done in the channel. I believe folks mostly troll bottom walkers and jig harnesses or pull plugs. There are 2 ramps on Sauvies island to launch from.
