I was down on the other side of of Dodge today down the dead end road ( is this called the garbage hole ?) for about 2 hours , i drifted eggs the whole time , just the crappy ones i bought from bi mart . It was way more crowded than it was yesterday when i was there , so i didn't get the spot i wanted , and the three guys that were there all landed fish , 3 nice ones between the three of them .
Everyone was using spnners , exept the one guy switched to eggs and caught his fish then switched right back to spinner ... other guys caught thiers with spinners .
I went to dodge park for the first time today. Saw one pulled out but didn't one myself. Shortly after that I went up the road a little bit to a hole called garbage hole. right as i pulled up before i could get my pull out saw someone landing a nice ho. That would make two adult coho and one jake between the two of them. Went down river a few yards and started throwing the blue fox out. About a half hour in to it hooked my first samon ever. Faught the big guy for about 15 minutes got some nice jumps and about less then two feet from me it jump again and Ill be dam if that fish didn't just spit the hook at me. don't think I set the hook good enough or something but oh my it was fun now I know what fish I'm going for from now on. Going to be heading out there again in the morning. So many fish rolling through there not even funny. any one want to go with or meet out there let me know. hope to post again on sat but this time with a pic.

I keep hearing about the garbage hole and was hoping somebody might be kind enough to let me know how to get there. So far I've read it's across from dodge park at the end of a dead end road?
Ive never been there either...heck i just found cedar creek last week. Normally the lower half of the river is my fishing grounds, from Dabney on down to the mouth, and mostly below Lewis and Clark. But Ive been having a lot of fun checkin out new spots! Anyways if it doesn't get posted, maybe one of us will be lucky enough to get a pm...

OK actually the garbage or trash hole isn't at the the end of the road across from the Water bureau building. It's a turn out about 1/3 mile down the dead end road. It's been called the garbage hole for some time as it once was an illegal dump site. It's been cleaned up pretty well since then, But there are still nails and other derbis that can flatten your tires.
The road is directlly across the street from the park entrance and as I said infront of the portland water bureau maint building.
They have stickers you can put on your car or tackle boxI will be there tomorrow :dance:
Look for the bald guy looking confused
Maybe someone could give me some tipsray: so I don't go to the darkside and start snagging in order to get a fish :naughty:
We need hats that say " I'm OFF"
Started fishing the Sandy a couple of weeks ago. Went up yesterday and looked like chocolate milk. How many days does it take to get back in shape?
Are you sure that was a trout? It could of been a smolt...
