Beer Beer A buddy of mine several years back used to swear by "feeding" his water tray in his gas smoker about a six pack of some Candian lager beer while smoking. And Yes, kept it about 1/4 full the whole time while smoking. He would always say it guzzled a beer or two an hour, and said it...

Hit it early this morning with no luck Hit it early this morning with no luck It seems to be a quiet morning for fishing. I fished the spillway, up by I5 from 7am to 9:30 and it was pretty quiet. I threw most everything I had at them. They nibbled at some worms, and I hooked one, but it broke...

ABC is getting Stocked tomorrow or Thursday. So is JCP on Thursday. You can call the Leeberg Hatchery if you want to confirm which day for sure. Both should be hot by Friday. ABC is usually hot the day they stock it. JCP, usually give it 24 hours after it is stocked for the fish to get moving...

Size of fish Size of fish I spoke with the people who stocked it last Thursday and actually posed that question to them as the fish seemed big this year, and she said this time around they are. They actually stocked "leftovers" as she called them from last year, so all of the trout in Alton...

Does anybody know if there is any good fishing around Fern Ridge Reservoir during the winter months while the water is down? Is the lake even open to fishing this time of year. I suppose I could this info in the Regs, but this is easier. Also, what about below the dam. Catfish, bass, crappie?

Skunked today Skunked today I was at AB today, but it was pretty dead. Don't think they stocked it yet... Nice catch on the fly. What part of the canal were you fishing?

I overheard an interesting debate while fishing at JCP the other day and thought I would post it hear as I did not know the answer either... One guy was saying that someone he knew caught 23" steelhead out of the Alton Baker Canal, and he said that they had to tag it because the Alton baker...

Fished it all week Fished it all week Yeah I was there too, and it was dead in the beginning of the week. I went on the 2nd, 4th and 5th and 6th. They stocked on the 4th. It was really good the morning of the 5th. I limited out plus 2 C&R. I've heard it is always good action the day after and...
