Went out tonight and got my contractor one after work.

Yeah. Kill bag with ice.

I got on the board early this year. I had heard of a few fish being caught so I figured I better get out and give it a go. I went by my favorite spot at 5:45 this morning and there was a boat launching so I moved to another spot I like and had these two by 7:30. Feels great to get the skunk...

Same S$%#, different year. Pump failures, water temp problems, drunk truck drivers etc. I swear it's a conspiracy against hatchery fish but then I remember one of my favorite quotes. Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence.

This is awesome but it makes me feel old when they say 30 years ago and then remind me that it was in the 90s.

That dude is one of the most ornery people I've ever put in my boat.

I like to thin mine out with pickle juice to hide the mayo flavor. Mine is very simple though. Finely chopped pickles and onion with Mayo and lemon. Thin with pickle juice and then add whatever flavor you want. I like sriracha.

We got to keep one today.

Amazing! I bet that fish gave him a work out.

Things have slowed a bit for me. Met a friend at the ramp at 3pm yesterday. Hit all the holes at least once and only found 2 fish. This one stayed on. Really fun fight in current. Fish went upstream while we were floating downstream (drag was waaaay too loose) and very nearly got spooled...

Derby weekend over here is always crazy. I usually don't even try to fish it with all the boats on the water but as good as fishing has been I figured I'd give it a shot. Saturday was super slow. My kid and I went out around 3 and got one fish in about an hour and half before he was ready to...

My goodness this is a good year. Of course it happens on a year I can't get out much. I took the afternoon off today and hit the river shortly after 2pm. We ended up hooking 7, landed 5 and missed at least 2 other bites by 5pm. Had to get at least one pic to remember the day.

I'm seeing the Umpqua is supposed to bump again, right as it's coming into perfect shape. Grrrr

I'm not a bank guy so I'm speaking about fishing from a boat but a buddy had the day of his life at Whitaker Creek at 10' after a slow drop from 16'. I love that people won't fish because it's high. It was raging on Tuesday in an incredibly popular spot but we were the only boat there because...

It was crazy good fishing. The water was supposed to rise over night but it didn't so no one showed up to fish. We had it all to ourselves and fish were moving through in waves. 17 legit hook ups and more missed bites. The water was really high so we we broke a few fish off in submerged...
