Finally! A chinook decided it was our turn....we were thinking we'd put in enough time already! Laughing

Saturday produced this

OH NO!!! I'm not nerdy enough to get the pic to display! No more network engineering for me Wink

Sunday, we each had a takedown but produced no fishies...marked lots, but no takers

I still can't get the pic to load here...think it is because of the non-wrap in the text input page .... but I dunno how to fix it...oh well..at least we remembered to take a picture before I fileted it! Very Happy

Holy Moly...Steve's famous now! hehe He's on the front page!

I think this week's storm will move any fish that are left straight like a shot upriver. We decided 60mph gusts and 4 inches of rain between now and Sunday probably wouldn't be much fun fishing, so looks like it's the end of the Yaquina fishing season for us....back to the Columbia for some sturgeon! A buddy told us they fish for sturgeon on the Yaquina...anyone ever done that? Seems like there aren't any deep holes we've seen there that sturgeon love so much...but whada we know? Confused

A friend of mine who has been fishing the river for the last several weeks picked up a small sturgeon last weekend. He was trolling a herring and it just grabbed it. He was in 15 feet of water. I have to believe there should be a decent sturgeon fishery there, just pretty much untapped.
