I am assuming they had a boat- I see no access via google maps.
just to let everyone know, i talked a lady today and she came in where i work and she said her husband and her were going fishing at rogets landing in newberg, i probed for the coho issue and she said her and her husband had caught 2 coho's already today, and they were heading back out, i asked her what they used and she said spinners, she said it was where the yamhill river connects with the willamette, i did not see the fish, but my guess is they are in....
they did have a boat, she told me one was a 13 lb. and the other was a 20 lb. i found this hard to believe...I am assuming they had a boat- I see no access via google maps.
Native steelhead, and hatchery chinook and steelhead make it over the falls.
Without a fishladder?
There's a "fish ladder" at Willamette falls.
And I believe fish make it over without using the fish ladder so I've been told.
I mean before the fish ladder was ever constructed. That fish has gotta have hops.
gonna throw me some spinners on saturday... i want SALMON !!! lolSolution7,
Most of the fish are pretty dark (or very red) by the time they get to the Yamhill. I have got lucky enough to land a couple chromers last year. After they head up the Yamhill they pour into it's tributaries, but from what I undretsand all Tributaries are closed. Just throw lures and you're almost guaranteed to get one. I seen a few at the mouth of Willamina Creek already, so they have to be all throughout the lower river.
i am going saturday and i will update you...and i will be using some tco spinners... and i hope i get one kodiakI am gonna make some time next week to go scout this out and try and find these fish near the mouth of the yamhill. I want to find this local fishing. I live in McMinnville and this kind of fishing would be perfect and very close by. I hope the fish aren't too dark.
Before the fish ladder was built they just used the locks that have been there since 1873 or something like that.
I mean like way back when...
Like 1500s?
