Wasn't fishing for the steelhead, just a nice surprise! Kayaking at the mouth area is great for all fishing, crappie, catfish, sturgeon, bass, even those annoying little squawfish, I seem to always catch something around that spot. I'm glad to here you talk to people about the river, my the company I work for has been working hard to increase the fish population around here, and I even have ODFW talking about re seeding Milton here soon since were finding more help from Salem on the matter. Halibuthitman you ever go fish out in the bay or channel? Any word on any bite?
