Great, thanks! I assume the gates are open?

Dag Nabbit, I missed the 4/9 event :(. At any rate, is it open to fish now? Tomorrow looks like it will be a beautiful day to take the grandkids out. Thanks, Paul

Nice job for your first time out, some go and go and take forever to get results. Nothing like doing it yourself, congrats!

I seem to remember it said Oct 1

Yeh, that Barbie pole has seen it's share of fish this year, she landed 2 yesterday. I think I mentioned to you that it was lost at one point IN Detroit Lake. We were out there in July and my brother casted it out for Haley on the fishing dock and it slipped out of his hand, broke her heart...

Took the Granddaughters there today. I don't know what pond we were at, but we were within spitting distance from the ODFW set up, assuming there was only one. A couple of short videos of the girls. YouTube - Haley's Trout, St. Louis Ponds YouTube - Taylor's Bluegill at St. Louis Ponds

Tuna is always good! Make sure it has plenty of mayo and pickles in it. It is eaten cold, tastes and smells like fish, so if you have fish smell on your hands, it blends right in.

Hey Frodog, My recommendation would be a 25 - 30# rocker style anchor with an additional 6' of 5/16" chain. This will handle most conditions. I also have an additional 6' of 3/8" chain that can be wrapped along side the 5/16" to give it more weight in faster waters. In my personal opinion, if...

Try North Fork Reservoir (Promontory Park) in Estacada, if that's not too far. We typically limit out each time. We generally just use a worm on a hook with a small split shot, but a lot of people troll with wedding rings. Good spots are by the log boom at the dam and back side of the lake...

The Garbage Hole is the first dock you see on the right side down river launching from Sportcraft Marina on the Willamette in Oregon City. If you are going tomorrow (Saturday) you will probably see one million plus boats there. Good Luck, Paul

Dad and I were out there this Wednesday and brought about 15 in the boat with one Small Mouth Bass in about 5 hours in the Garbage Hole. Went out today with Fishkiller and his gal and only one in the boat for about 3 hours. Went down from Meldrum for some Sturgeon and nothing. Went upriver...

I was out with him last Wed & Thurs for some anchor training and we started at Oregon City, did some training, caught some Shad, then down river for a few shakers. We hunted Gators on Thurs on the Columbia, but only managed a couple of shakers. I heard he did better the last couple of days...

Hey Shawn, How did you end up doing Friday? We got skunked! Did you go out Saturday also? Paul

My vote IF you could only make one size would also be 10. I generally am going from 8 - 12. As far as honey holes, just look for deeper holes and drop off's. Just watch it if you are fishing in the deep fast waters right down from the falls. Very rocky bottom, prone to lost anchors, but they...

Are you talking about banking or boating and anchoring in the swirl out there? Thanks, Paul
