Nice fish Doug. I tried the mouth of the Sandy on Friday 3rods with no action. didn't see any for about 40 boats.

Oh yeah, there are fish in the river and more to come. I've yet to fish the way-lower river, but now that I know there are more coming in, I am on my way. Any tips? Let's see, Launch at Gilbert River ramp, head up channel past coon island, troll back to the ramp, repeat. Usually bite is...

Nice fish. prolly not mid twenties, more like 15. What hole did you find it in?

Well I gues the drop in water temp has put the bite back on near Coon Island. This little hen liked my cut plug with red flasher at first light. They're still comin!

For what its worth the guy downstream from me at the first rapid below Cross Park said 20-25 were caught at the bowling alley hole yesterday. Didn't see any action this am where I was.

Il Waco, passed buoy 10 and headed a little North. You're right, catchin em in the Ocean is a breeze compared to the rivers. I'll still be tryin the latter though. We fished with anchovies and caught about half Chinooks. Some of the Silvers were pretty big, for silvers.

Was out on a family charter trip to the Salt this am, started out a little slow but then it got a little crazy. Boat ended up with 14 limits with lots of nates tossed back and long line releases to boot. My 6 year old landed his first salmon, with a little help from dad.

Way to go Dan! Was wonderin where you were. Congrats on the first fish bonked on the new vessel. Glad you had your lines in the water before the bite was on.

Nicely done Alan. Sorry you had to work so hard. Columbia was unfishable this evening, chop and wind.

Well I didn't feel like paying an extra 20% so I had to twist some up myself instead. First attempt on my part. Comments please.

Ok, thats semi helpful. add 20%...huh?

So, what belongs at the end of my line to catch a nook in the coming weeks? Spinners? anchor or troll? Any thoughts from the pros would be appreciated.

FMF, When you enter the park take the first right, and head towards the upper boat launch. Just before the last hill to the launch there is a gravel road on the right, I think it has a sign for Estacada, take that and park on the left after 200 yds or so. There are multiple paths which lead...

I was at the dam hole for the 1st time on Sat as well. Got there around 530, thought I'd see more fish but I bailed around 730 to go back to bed. Saw one that had been caught before I got there and a Jack. Were you there that early fisch?...Good luck tonight.

Congrats on the catch.
