Jamie, so glad yall are safe. Let me know how I can help and when. I'm just freakin out for you! Hopefully the river will keep dropping. I'm off this week.

Why am I not surprised Jamisonace? Put me on the Left overs List:)

Rock on!! Good for you for getting your boy out there. I know it takes a little extra work and patience. My eight year old daughter just got her salmon/steelhead tag for the 1st time this year. We are hoping to get her into one soon. She is all pumped up. Thanks for sharing!:dance:

I found one on the bank of the Siletz one time. it had a corkie and hook in its mouth. Man it was ugly. Huge nasty teeth.

Thanks for the link. There is a nice flyrod for someone who wants to get started for $49 with a nice reel, floating line and backing all ready to go. Might need to get one myself!

Nimrod and I showed up to Lookout at about 800ish. Met Fsh on Fred and his wife at the ramp. Very nice people. Nice boat.:) We fished in my drift boat towards the dam. After a few hours of battling the waves we decided to start rowing back against the wind to the ramp on the east shore. We were...

I was up there today and got pounded by the waves in my driftboat. My friend got a 14" rainbow on a gold spoon. Saw your place up there Thuggin. Looks lake a great view of the res from up there. Hoping it's a little calmer next weekend.

That's how I do it! Ha ha Great memories of going up that windy road and catching lots of trout as a kid. My dad would take his pan and I'd be all excited to see a few colors once in a while. Beautiful country.

Take yer pan. There be gold in them waters! Arrrrr!

Great job. Nothing better than steelhead on a fly. Were you swinging or dead drifting? The purple egg sucking leech is my go to steelhead fly in the valley. wt

Thanks troutdude. I couldn't be happier with my diamond back. I just got it last spring and it has opened up a whole new world of fishing for me.wt

Well, we may have got the idea from your posts. Delicious little fishies! wt

That's what I thought. When we netted the fish I thought for sure it was a nate. Coolest hatchery trout I've ever seen. Thanks for the info. wt

Yesterday Nimrod243 and I decided we had better try Lookout for the first time. I recently got an electric trolling motor for my diamond back drift boat, so we had to try it out. 1st off I have to say, this is a beautiful res. Great views. I fished a wedding ring with a worm with a 2 ounce...

I learned how to fish catching planted trout and so have my 3 girls and my boy will when he is old enough. I love catch and release for native fish. But my kids like to cook a fish when they catch it. They eat everything they take home.
