Fished the creek below Fern ridge lake today about 3pm-7pm
Launched at the "coyote creek kayak and canoe launch" but I would not recommend it. There is a 4' washed out bank that is all clay and slime. I would launch from 126 next time
I guess there used to be some stairs? Or a dock?
Both fish came off a jig! First time I've thrown one in Oregon
Best fish was 4lbs 1oz, other was maybe 2
Both real healthy
Had 2 others fishing but they were both skunked.

Nice fish. You've been killin' it lately!
Took me a while to figure out where you are though. As the creeks "below" Fern Ridge, would technically be on the north side of the dam. Close to where the Long Tom flows out.
But then I honed in on your Hwy. 126 reference; and the last pic of the bridge. I have always wondered about those backwaters. They've always looked fishing to me.

Good work. I fished that stretch via the bank twice in the past month and came up empty handed. Tried Texas and Carolina rigs and even rooster-tail spinners and crappie jigs. Not even a single bite. That spot you mentioned would be a tough one to launch from.
