Nowhere near hereGonna have to try that ravioli on Momma soon.
The Dam is 40 miles from Portland. Big fish however can be caught in downtown Portland all the way up to the Columbia into Canada. My best from the bank is a little over 7 foot, caught it on a squid. The Willamette has some big fish in it from time to time but landing them from the bank can be tough. All up and down the river there are old pillars from when there was real waterfront warehouses, you hook a big fish and they go down and wrap around those or whatever else they can find if your not careful. I've lost some really big ones even fishing off of docks that are thirty or so feet from the bank. My favorite is fishing with a heavy canon ball out of my inflatable kayak you hook them and go for a ride!I was gonna pm you this but
How far by boat is the Bonneville Dam from you?
Bucket list is a picture of a huge oversize sturgeon with buddies in the water.
Try riding through it on a bicycle tripping, watching the sun go down on the cliffs till its dark and you have to find a spot to pitch a tent still high. Spent more than a night or two on the bike watching bats come to the bugs attracted by my lights. Love the gorge.. One of the many reasons why Oregon is home.Oh yes indeed! Yes, you bring back some memories. The beautiful CRG. I know that gorge hwy well. Traveled it many times stoned out of my mind. One time I was going from one job in the Dalles trying to get to another gig in Wenatchee and I missed my turn . I was so mesmerized by driving along the River road stoned like over 50 miles out
Of the way before i realized there was no turn right out over the mountains on over to Yakima and to Wenatchee. So like 100 extra miles that day. 5 hours planned went to like 8 hours driving.
Nice! Yeah, i’ve caught allot of sturgeon. But like I said, not a super huge oversize, or at least i know. I’ve hooked some beasts that could never bring in. You see pics of a few dudes in the water holding up a 2-250+ lber. That’s what i want. I just always hear about right beneath the dam, during oversize/c&r season.The Dam is 40 miles from Portland.

Yeah the guides use full size shad, pretty much nothing but the big guys can bite on those.Nice! Yeah, i’ve caught allot of sturgeon. But like I said, not a super huge oversize, or at least i know.

You guys use some pretty big baits for the dbacks up there. And they hit pretty hard, or rather suck up the bait pretty hard. Down here I use rod balancers to see the small pump. The same sturgeon down here in our delta would be scared of your big offerings. Definitely no shad tacos working down here. For some reason the dbacks are more timid down here. I remember someone explaining why in an article online but i cant remember.Yeah the guides use full size shad, pretty much nothing but the big guys can bite on those.
Water temp plays a huge part in how they bite, in winter I often fish with a lighter rod with a more sensitive tip in order to see the nibble, as the water warms the bites get more and more aggressive. One day I nearly lost my rode and reel, the strike was so sudden and hard. I had barely set the pole down and its started dancing, only thing that saved me was a pretty high railing I had the pole leaned against. Now I loosen the drag and engage the clicker pretty much always.You guys use some pretty big baits for the dbacks up there. And they hit pretty hard, or rather suck up the bait pretty hard.

Bats are very creepy. Living in Tucson Arizona we had a batch of bats as nightly feeders at my feeder for them. A couple times when I sat out there at night, unknowingly of course, one would fly by me and touch me with its wings. So creepy I would get back inside after cloaking myself like Dracula would. Lol. That sounds odd but it’s true.Try riding through it on a bicycle tripping, watching the sun go down on the cliffs till its dark and you have to find a spot to pitch a tent still high.

@manfredo Why so sad?Finally finished putting the main garden to bed after work tonight.
I hear you. I did take the leaves from our dogwood tree and buried them under the soil we had piled for the squash and cucumbers. We bought fava beans and clover seed for cover crops but I'm not sure whether they will germinate now or not.It's a long time til spring....A little sad to see the gardens die and the trees shed their leaves.
