Winchester Bay Fishing- Salmon Catching Insanity
I apologize for the sensationalized title for this post, but I’m not sure there’s a combination of superlatives available that wouldn’t leave the description just a little bit short of the truth. Winchester Bay Salmon fishing has been on fire, it’s that simple. Limits have been the norm and we’ve seen a real nice quality of […]
Fall Fishing- Ready, set, GO!
The next four months are really the creme de la creme for Salmon fishing in the Pacific Northwest. Millions of Salmon will make their way into their natal rivers over the course of the next several months and we’ll be there, with rods, reels and barbeque’s in hand. I’ll be starting the season this year […]
Fathers Day- Leatherman Style
I’m fortunate to be able to live the life I do. A great wife and kids, wonderful clients and a life in the fishing business. Both of my parents supported my fishing issues growing up and Dad even contributed to the way of life that I now live. So when Leatherman asked me if I’d […]
Central Oregon High Lakes Vacation-East Lake
I love Central Oregon. The smells of juniper, pine and sagebrush put a smile on my face. The feel of the cool mornings on my often sun burnt skin while I enjoy my first cup of coffee. It’s a special place all on it’s own, but with a personal history, it’s much more. I look […]
Willamette River Salmon Fishing- Video 517
Have I ever told you how much fun we have on my boat? Excuse me, but I’m not sure I could be more fortunate than to be able to share days with the families, friends and business associates that I do. On this particular day, one of my guests, Robert Leary of Robert Leary Consulting […]
Columbia River Salmon- Springers, wait I mean Summers
Some of you may know that we received an extension on the Columbia River to continue to fish for Spring Salmon. I wasn’t terribly excited about the option as I spend my May on the Willamette fishing for Spring Salmon and these sort of seasons aren’t usually that productive. In this case however, it did […]
Willamette River Spring Salmon: Half-day fishing trips
One of the great attractions to our Willamette River Spring Salmon fishing is the close proximity to the places where many of us live and work. It’s this convenience that allows me to offer half-day evening trips for the upcoming month of Spring Salmon fishing on the Willy. The afternoon looks something like this- Grab […]
April rains equal great fishing for Willamette River Spring Salmon in May
This past week heavy rains made the Spring Chinook fishing interesting on the Willamette River. The fishing was getting interesting and I was getting the temperature of the eggs dialed in and bamo. At one point on Wednesday morning it felt like we got 5 inches in 5 minutes. It was an amazing deluge and […]
Willamette River Spring Chinook Salmon fishing off to a good start
Early Willamette River Spring Chinook Salmon fishing is generally hit and miss. Too much water, too little water or worse yet, no fish period. I typically steelhead fish the last couple weeks of March as the steelhead fishing is generally good and early Springer fishing is, well, hit and miss. This past week while I […]
G. Loomis IMX 1262-2C STFR 10′-6″ Steelhead Bobber-Float Rod Review
I was able to attend the G. Loomis IMX roll out on January 30th of this year. It was a great evening of seeing friends and being able to get a first hand look at the latest in rod development from G. Loomis. One of the rods that caught everyone’s eyes was the new steelhead […]
