Anyone having any luck on the Columbia or Willamette river for springers? Talked to neighbors who have gone out and have yet to land any. What about you guys?

I know of at least three different kayakers that have connected with Willamette fish.

"A venturesome minority will always be eager to get off on their own,
and no obstacle should be placed in their path;
let them take risk, for God sake, let them get lost, sun burnt, stranded, drowned,
eaten by bears, buried alive under avalanches -
that is the right and privilege of any free American."

Right on. Good to hear people are hooking into them. I'm figuring on heading out Thursday and trying my luck. Just got to decide where to go. :)

There are some people hooking springers in the Willamette lately, mostly in kayaks.
Don't wait for the report. Make the report.

Fake News!  That didn't happen.  I discount your photographic evidence. ;)
