thanks for the replies. I've never fished off the jetties. This could be interesting.

Are fall Chinook moving up the coastal rivers yet? I'm not having any luck finding reports.

Tenmile is a big lake. Is there a certain spot a fellow in a kayak might want to focus? Asking for a friend. :)

Were the carp at least big enough to be a fun fight?

Thanks @plumbertom, that's good info. I wonder if the Coyote Cr area might be better for crappie or maybe catfish. I'll try it again with some different setups. Figuring it out is the most interesting part. Fish would be nice though... :)

A while back, I tried fishing the Coyote Creek channel at the south end of Fern Ridge Reservoir in a kayak. It was my second time fishing it, the first time was on the bank working my way down from Cantrel road. I was mostly throwing Texas rigged softbaits, but I tried some top water lures...

Maybe it's been too long since I bought mine, but my setup didn't cost anything near that.

I'm intrigued, but I wouldn't call those poles inexpensive.

There are some nice pools and runs along the campground. It's been many years since I've fished it, but I've caught nice trout there. Check the regs, but I believe you can keep any hatchery fish, but mostly I caught wild fish. There's a nice boulder strewn run downstream of the campground...

Maybe some steel wool can clean them up and then hit them with some clear coat to keep them from tarnishing again?

It's a tributary that joins a few miles down stream of the dam(n ).

That's awesome!

When I catch smallies on the Umpqua, they all get filleted, even the small ones. The salmonids need all the help they can get. Small small mouths make for good fish tacos. ;)

I saw a brief write up in the news about this. @troutdude, article said there were no human remains.

Thanks for posting those pics!
