welcome to OFF. Where the heck is the Gilbert River?

 

[DDRog]

Gilbert River is on Sauvie Island - near (opposite) Collins Beach. It is a nice dock with a boat Ramp

You should also try some of the lakes on the island like sturgeon lake, caught many catfish out of that lake.

Well. I know in the winter time there are masses of whitefish there, and perch (my first fish caught there), For catfish. I would use Chicken liver. even though you might still have a bigger chance of catching pikeminnow, (im good at fihsing for them, Need advice. pm me) You weill have a better chance of catching cats. There are also walleye there. Carp and sucker fish.

Filet those pikeminnows and use it for bait! Catfish, sturgeon, and steelhead love it!
