The wife and kids are out of town. So I was thinking of hitting the Suislaw tomorrow 3/7. Has anyone been out? Have you had any luck? Any advice would be great. Thanks Derek
I don't know if Lake creek necessarily drops faster...but it never gets the nasty color that the siuslaw does, simply because it's more of a gravel/rock bottom, whereas the siuslaw is sand and mud. Bank access over there is a premium though. Pretty limited. We'll see what it looks like tomorrow.fishkiller said:I think I'm gonna head high over Nelson Mt. and work my way down. I have a friend who did well earlier this week on the Siuslaw. I'm gonna try roe, steelhead worms, and jigs. If all else fails I will try spinners. I'm not sure of the conditions but Lake Crk. seems to drop faster.

Lol looks like we'll all be therenw5785 said:I will be there tomorrow too not sure where but ill be there
fishkiller said:I'm heading over early. The early bird definitely gets the worm on Lake Crk. Where are you headed to? Lake Crk has better flow also which helps with the clarity.
I think it's the year of the pink corkie, I know of several people hooking up with a single pink corkie. Last year it was red, this year pink.Dichrofisher said:I am doing the Siuslaw sunday.

I myself hate corkies, bleh. But if that's what it takes...I'm willing to give 'er a try...anything...this dry spell is gonna do me in!
I've never ever used yarn balls...I think it's 'cause that's what my dad always used and I was like pfff, I can do better. lol. I don't know why really. How do you rig a yarn ball? and are there different sizes? (stupid questions, but eh)Mike123 said:Just tie up a pink yarn ball.. I like yarn balls a lot better and only use corkies sometimes if im using bait.
All the fish I've hooked/landed this year have been on yarn balls. Egg and Flame combo has been the best.
Lol I saw the damn weather report. I was thinking the same thing...but hey maybe less people will be out today if they think it's gonna be icky? It was crowded today.nw5785 said:Well my girlfiriend managed to keep me home todaybut we have an aggrement for tomorrow so I WILL be out tomorrow
