I haven't heard any recent reports from the Willamette, but I am heading out tomorrow and with any luck I will be posting some fishy pictures.

I'm officially registered.  Stopped by the shop, but didn't know registration was to be done online.  Got it all squared away though...

Sturgeon fishing has been tough because the last months worth of rain has made water conditions, um, "less than ideal." I know about 3 weeks ago it took 16oz of lead to keep the bait on the bottom down at the Toyota hole.  To top it off, within 20 minutes there was a ton of weed wrapped around the lines.  Right now things are looking on the up, and for those of you heading out tomorrow it should be good fishing.  Just have to hope the accumulations over the next week are minimal.

FWIW, i know of over a dozen fish caught in the last month ;) would have been more, but i've been sick the last couple days  :sad4:

Right now it isn't bad at all.  Where I am in downtown it is not too tough to get upriver.  If we don't get a lot of rain in this next week it should get even more mild.

the Willy is definitely looking good to me.  I've been seeing sand again along its edges and Ross Island.

It is about prime right now.  If it gets much lower the tide starts to be way to effective at killing the current especially from Sellwood bridge to the mouth.  Makes it much harder to stay square while fishing and for the most part, in the harbor for sure, once the current dies off the bite isn't far behind.  Best bite below Sellwood is always on outgoing water.
