Willamette keeper sturgeon

We started out the retention week with the top up and the heaters on high. It was cold and windy but the fish were still biting. I had a great time seeing some new faces and making some new Friends. For the three days this week we ended up with 30 shakers and 8 legals. Stay warm and dry and i will see you on the water.

Willamette Keeper sturgeon

December 2 09

The bite on the Willamette for the last couple weeks has been a Little on the rough side. As all the storms rolled through and the barometer was any thing but stable the fish followed suite. There were a lot of fish but 90% were suspended. We did manage to get a few.In the last two weeks we ended up with 12 legals 6 over size and 25 shakers. This week should be a little more forgiving with some stable weather coming in. Here are a few pics. Take care

Willamette River Sturgeon Report

November 15 sturgeon fishing

Wednesday November 12 we were on the water for some catch and release action. We did manage to catch some nice fish even though the water level came up and the temp dropped down to 49 F. Thursday through Saturday were far from normal with the high water and increased flows. There were a lot of fisherman spread all through the river but did not see a lot of fish fighting as we were making our rounds. We ended up with 9 legals for the 4 days of fishing 40 shakers and 2 over size. The quality of fish that we got was very nice. Here are a few pics of George and the gang who i fished with for three days. Thank you

Fall Sturgeon Fishing

November 5th Sturgeon fishing

I was on the water Thursday fishing with good Friend John Beath. We had excellent results. We managed to land 9 legals 6 shakers and landed 1 over size and lost another. The water was on the rise which we desperately need to get the fish moving. Back on the water Friday with more hot fishing. I was fishing with Amber Davis and the gang. In just under three hours we put 6 keepers in the boat with a hand full of shakers. The last three fish we caught were all legals at the same time with the biggest one taping out at 51 1/2". Saturday back on the water with terrible results. The weather that came in should have been added to the movie The Perfect Storm. It was special to say the least. Until next week take care
