I'll be going out tomorrow out of Newberg, anyone been out there recently? I'm hoping to catch at least one shaker. Will have sandshrimp, worms, herring, and a shad for bait.

Just got back caught 8 shakers and 2 keepers for the boat. All were released unharmed, all were caught on strips of Shad filets.

8 shakers and 2 keepers, thats a pretty good ratio there. That was a pretty good area the few times I went during April. In the 3 trips I went we caught keepers every trip. Still fun even though you had to throw them back.

Went back out this morning for about 4 hours and between my dad and me got 17 shakers to the boat. Even had doubles on twice! Had some that were fairly close to keeper size but since its a non-retention day didn't bother messuring. Had to leave early because the wind started picking up and all the recreational boaters were showing up. I will upload some pics in a bit, gotta find my cord.

Went out again for a few hours had a bunch of bites and one shaker to the boat. Too windy this morning. Here are some pics of last weeks two sets of doubles.
