I know . This is life beyond fishing. I will be re-visiting the Pacific Northwest on a mission to catch steelhead ,the last 2 weeks of march ,ish. Still have to nail down the dates,but I plan on 2 weeks. I would post this on the main board but that board is stuffy and boring. Which of you crazy fkers is down to fish? I am from California and so obviously that must mean I can't catch a cold right?


BTW I prefer drift fishing or throwing hardware from the bank. Wait I'm from California there are no steelhead rivers here.

I'll fish with you a couple days. March would work fine. I don't know what the steelhead forecast looks like, but I can usually scratch up some fish.

PM me.

I will Dan. I plan on spending a few days in Oregon with friends and fishing some of the old stomping grounds on the North coast . Definitely a week of hard fishing in Washington where the fish and weather co- operate

That's crazy Robert - I was just thinking earlier today if you were still going to head up this way and if so, I was going to offer a day or two on the river or a centrally located place to crash if'n you needed one. So I'll fish ya' too if'n you want...

Chit man, we could have a Dark side rally! I'm sure other fine doods would be down. LMK.

Well ,um yeah! I will keep y'all posted . Last time I came up there it was a rented house type deal. This trip will be more flexible because I have a few people I need to see,my oldest friend in P-town among others. I'm gonna try and take as much time as I need .

Drag Rusty up here with you - we'll make him carry the beer.

Avid,

Just be sure the main reason for traveling up here is to visit folks and not the fishing. Steelheading has collapsed here. You actually have better steelhead fishing in CA than we now have in WA. It's crazy, I know, but this is how our world is now.

I am up on fisheries decline Salmo. That being said I have caught and released hundreds of fish on some of the most depleted runs in the world,and luckily for me,I can read water. But I also want a change of pace,and by the time I hit the states or WA/OR our runs will be downstreamers or done with,so I think I will make the best of it. And yeah I have peeps to connect with.

Lol I will be checking in with him. He's a busy guy. Maybe he can get a couple days to go play

So it's all your fault. Thanks.




joking. It's all our fault.

It's just geographics. The streams south of the golden gate are hurtin. I seldom fish for those anymore,but will a couple times a year during peak times. But it's nothing for us to drive 7 hours to fish the Klamath ,or for me to run a long weekend to the Chetco.

Yeah, that.

Be in touch.

Fish on...

Todd

You must be one of those who don't know how to fish then.

Regarding winter steelhead I would say fly fishing is the last method I would employ.

You guys are true role models.

I take that responsibility seriously.

I will out fish you.

That would make you a roe model.

Lol, You must be high.

Nope the Lord has put me on this path.
