This last summer I went right of the dock and around the bend and had good luck. It is 60 plus feet deep there for a long way. Good luck! Want to try Winchester bay this week for sturgeon Roy?

I would love to try the Umpqua for sturgeon this week, but the tides aren't being very cooperative.

Got out for a DR test today. Works killer. Only thing i'm gonna do is ditch the spectra and wind some 30 pound power pro for less drag. I was only using a 1 pound weight, at 1mph the blowback was nominal but anything over blew it back pretty good. The luddite isn't much of a photographer. At least my whole yak is in this picture... ::

I'm sportin my third place prize....

See ya on the water..
