Yep. They have been dumping THOUSANDS of "trophy trout" into Detroit. Some of which, could head up that river.
When using spinners...if you don't lose some on each trip...then your spinners aren't in the strike zone. And most people reel them in way too fast. Which also defeats their purpose. Words of wisdom from Oregon's spinner guru Jed Davis.
Good looking out. I wasn't sure if that road is open again, for recreational use. The inferno of 2020 really torched that place!They Breitenbush and North Santiam rivers are both stocked generously above Detroit. The issue with the Breitenbush is access. It looks like a nuclear bomb went off in that canyon. There are one or two places you can make it down, and they’re absolutely loaded with pellet head rainbows.
Do you have a picture of what you mean by this? I do a lot of spinner fishing and am currently not doing anything like thisThis is what I ALWAYS do, is paint the underside of the blade with a reflective marking of some sort as to enhance the flash behind the tail. Like a target, target circle. Tony
Yes. I bought a first edition, in the 80's. I understand new things whenever I digest the contains again.I need to re-read that book, I read it when I first moved here and started fishing 8 years ago, I bet I would learn entirely different things now with a new perspective
I'd be tempted to buy one...You got all the tricks! You got your own book coming out soon too?! Lol. Appreciate the tips. Tight lines my friend
See my comments on past OFF postings: Aug 9-2020 by Slabjig "a better shrimp fly", and Nov 7-8 2022 "MORE TO COME". Tried to generate some interest in my style over the years, but no numbers in replies so I stopped " MORE TO COME". Tony. You got all the tricks! You got your own book coming out soon too?! Lol.
