Saw this on the Oregon forum @ Westfly and figured some of you guys might dig it. I can think if worse ways to spend 20 minutes! vimeo.com/19982291 |

I think the closest we'll get is Portland in a few years. Sandy, Clackamas, Deschutes and coastal Oregon streams will just have to do! Then you can come visit, I'll need a fishin buddy. |

SWA flies to PDX and as soon as I get the girlfriend on board and pay off a few bills, that might happen

I lived there for 8 inglorious months. 40+ rod days - 1 fish. I was in Gaspe for 12 hours before I had 2 released. It is beautiful out there (Clearwater is my favorite), but living there was not all it had cracked up to be. Came back the second the lease was up on the apartment.

40+ day and 1 fish, I actually like the sound of that, makes you appreciate the fish more, not that I don't but I would love the challenge. I don't get discouraged easily, that's why I picked up the long stick and swing.

40 days and one fish is enough to discourage anyone. I like a good challenge too but that ratio is just way too low to hold anyone's interest. Though, like anywhere, if you stayed long enough, I'm sure you would get it figured out to where the catching part becomes more dependable.
Marty-- Thanks for sharing that video, very interesting!

Maybe with winter fish, and on non-coastal water, but if you never fished the Deschutes in September, that's just unforgivable. I've never fished the D without at least a hookup, sometimes multiple fish in a day (August through October, never earlier, never later). And I would easily put in many days to get another wild fish on a waker...something that would take even accomplished anglers years to do on most GL tribs.
