    Times have changed for me! Fishing buds come and go. And watching that vid brought back some great memories. I’m a brand new subscriber and the first day I could tell, what you’ve got going on here IS the real deal! Nice job. I think I’ll stick around awhile. Thanks! Ken E.

      Next month, Spring Chinook will be the hot ticket on the Columbia River near Portland. Get a good guide and have a ball!

      We bounced around all over Tillamook….never fished the same creek twice. As far as head counts go, I have no clue. We caught a bunch of fish but nobody really counted — we were just having fun hanging out, B.S.’ing and seeing some sweet steelie water…
