Sunday 4/19 Willamette Bass

Mostly a SMB thing on this part of the river.

Meldrums is on the east side of the river.

There is also a great launch using the parks and rec trail off "failing st." in West Linn. A cart is a must have though.

Doh! I just re-read that and said the same thing to myself. 
I don't know the Failing St launch. Glad to find another one!  Would you add it to the NWKA Google map please? Thanks!

Any plans for tomorrow morning?

No chance, I'm booked. Going to an airshow with my little girl. It'd be a bit of a drive though. (I'm back in FL)    

(and I have a lanyard on the replacement phone )

I know it's a bit last minute but count me in!

How did y'all do?

It was slow, but there is some serious potential in a few weeks, as the water warms. I left first and we only had 4 fish for 3 of us. Nice quality fish. Jeff may have some pics.
Great to have met you two. Look forward to more adventures.
Weather was perfect, maybe even too sunny. LOL

Yeah, what a great day. Tons of sun! Unfortunately, that meant lots of PB'ers out on the river, but no worries.
I'll let the pics do the talking... there's a few more in my gallery.









We found a snake takin a swim... i was dumb enough to pick it up. I forgot how much those things smell!

Thanks for the tour you guys. I hope your sunburns aren't too bad. 

While trolling back to Cedar Oak, a SM decided that my steelhead sized Kwikfish would make a nice dinner. It felt like a snag. I guess the 2 hooks on either lip kept it from shaking its head too much.

  w00t!!

Good to see you got one Jay!

Good job guys!!!  Looks like a really nice time!

I slept all day (graveyard)   

Looks like the weather was great for ya.

Thanks for the pics, Jeff.
Glad you got one, Jay!

Good job guys,  way to get after 'em!!  Jay, so much for your coveted last place...

It's all mine and I'll fight for it. I figured I'd give everyone with nothing on the board yet something to chase...

Hey, can I join the AOTY club and use these?
Oh, um, you bet they were all mine and all caught from a kayak...I swear (fingers crossed).

That's about 1 point per inch.....
