    Buddy missed a BEAST of a fish at Green Peter today!

    That was a hilarious video! Too bad you couldn’t find it but at least you found a picture. Nice detective work.

    That was throbbitshane. One of my favorite videos ever posted here. I’m sure it’s somewhere in the archives. Your buddy must’ve been heartbroken, we’ve all been there

    Eastern Oregon creek sees first salmon spawn in 30 years

    Wouldn’t that be considered a Bobber Weir? 😉

    Oregon Steelhead 2024

    Predicting the river to get to 14 feet but I’ll bet it gets higher. This whole month has pretty much been a wash up here.

    Oregon Steelhead 2024

    Shhhhhhh😉 I have had luck at 10 feet as well but 11 1/2 is definitely pushing it. They are calling for two more inches of rain the next couple days☹️

    Easier said than done. I know the old adage water is high fish high, water is low fish low. I can pretty much guarantee you no one is up there fishing high at 11+ feet, unless they’re plunking which is too boring for me. Plus good luck landing a steelhead in raging water like that from the bank.

    Oregon Steelhead 2024

    Nice! The rivers near me have never dropped to a level where you can fish them ( since the rains have come ) and they are rising more today. Seems like most of Oregon is fishing pretty well.

    I am dying to get out there, but with the ice storm and now the blown rivers, I’ve only been once this year. My advice is always keep your rod tip down low close to the water. I’m pretty much a bank maggot and have landed many a steelhead. Lots of times I put the rod tip down in the water so...

    Winter Camping and Fishing Along Oregon Coast Suggestions?

    I would recommend Tahkenitch lake. It is just down the road from Siltcoos. The campground is right on the lake and you can fish off the dock. If you have a canoe, there is good fishing right around there. It is not inundated with private homes like Siltcoos, much prettier, and quieter
