Howdy,
sometime around the father's day weekend timeframe (6/19) i am going to venture out of my little neck o' tha woods up here and fish some new areas. I have a few things in mind, but i do like the idea of being near the coast so i can take a day to go try some surf perchin or something else.
so, what i guess i need to know would be are there any little campgrounds around there? i don't plan on haulin a big RV or staying in spendy hotels on the coast, a tent is fine for me.
I will be stictly banking it..so what is the access like and what stretches should i be targeting? I know the springers should be running up there about now, but will they still be fishable in june? what about the steelie run? Truth is, i would prefer steelhead as i have yet to catch or even fish for a steelie in a river. well, i have caught them incidentally to salmon fishing in the columbia, but that isn't what i think of when i think steelhead fishing.
My Girlfriend will be with me and she is gamey when it comes to fishing, but i do try to keep things a bit easier when she is with me.. ie: no climbing down cliffs or other precarious types of methods to access a fishing hole.
just a few pointers is really all i need...i'll do my best to figure it out from there. exploration is 90% of the fun! just figure a little local knowledge to keep from barking up the wrong tree...(or being in the wrong forrest) would make things a little more productive.
thanks!
