Thanks for the info! I checked out more info on Yaquina bay and am feeling confident enough to give it a try. Two questions though. Can I drop crab pots off of the jetty? Is running a 6 1/2' single piece medium action bass rod with 12# line and 10# flouro leader going to cut it or should I...

I'm headed out to see my family in Newport next week. Going to be there for a week and would love to do some rock-fish fishing. However, I haven't done it outside of a deep-sea charter boat. I don't have a boat, so I'm obviously limited. Any suggestions on the what/when/where/how so that I...

Been out a few times the last week. Fishing above the dam from the bank and docks. Seen tons of steelies landed, and landed a few ourselves. Lot's of trout as well. Was out there today and it was slow above the dam but they were hitting big below it. You could see em rolling on the drop off...

Well we managed to make it out to Mciver park and fished off the dock. Two steelhead and a handful of trout in three trips. Not bad. I need to figure out how to upload pics from my phone now.

Awesome, thanks for the info. I will definitely be taking him there next week! And thanks Chris. Yeah a boat would be awesome! Some day.

Thanks for all the responses. It's been incredibly hard on me. I don't think he even knows he's leaving. Best wishes all.

Hey all. Looking for a handicapped accessible (or very easy and safe bank access) spot on the upper Clackamas to take my son Salmon/Steelie fishing. I have to either carry him or push him in his wheelchair. He can not stand, but doesn't mind sitting on the ground. Need an area with a flat...

My son is 5 years old and is severely disabled. While he can't hold a pole very well, he does like to crank the reel while I hold the pole. Sadly, his mother just moved to Georgia and in two weeks I have to fly him there to live with her. I am heart broken to say the least. Anyway, I decided...

Well Lost Lake ended up being a great suggestion! My wife and I fished from our kayaks for 3 hours and around 10 trout each. Unfortunately, they were all 6"-8" stockers, with the largest about 10". We released all but three, and only kept them because they swallowed the hook too deep. It was...

Sounds like a great plan! I think we will do this. Are the recycled Steelhead considered trout in the lake, or do I need a steelhead tag?

Was planning on heading down to Hagg Lake this weekend with the wife, but we want to camp and since that's not an option there I need some help. If you were going to camp, fish and bring canoes, which lake would you choose to go fishing within say 100 miles from Portland? Thanks! Oh yeah, I...

ANy pointers? I will have my kayak with me so I can get around a bit. I'd love any info!

Thanks for all the encouragement! I will try at Clackamette park soon, and man I'd love to hit up that John Day action!

Hello all, I have been reading all day today, and as you can see this is my first time posting on your site. I have had the opportunity to catch a handful of bass in my life, and focused on them hard all of last year. So here's the problem... I caught 3 smallies last year. That's it. I...
