Itchin' for fishin'

This Sunday and Monday. I haven't really been out in a while. My freezer is looking bare. Coastal tides are not in favor. Seas look reasonable at this time but that is likely to change. Very warm PDX temps predicted = lots of PBs and stereos on the Willy near Newberg...

What to do? Where to go?

I might be looking to do something on Sunday.  I'm just not sure when I can escape yet.   Anyway, I'd be up for just about anything...in no particular order... Drano springers, Willy sturgeon or smallmouth, Hagg trout or smallmouth, Smith & Bybee for largemouth, etc..

My wife is out of town until Sunday evening so I have the day pretty much to my leisure...

Even a little driving isn't out of the question. Oh, wait a minute. Any decent fishing involves a bit of driving 

If the weather forecast holds, I'd love to get out on the Nehalem in the morning...even with a mild outgoing tide.

Drano has been a zoo, but they are catching a few. Opening weekend for salmon and steelhead on the Klickitat.

I was actually thinking about Drano for Monday. I still need to get my new WA license though.

MC bass on Sunday?

I haven't had any luck in the Multnomah Channel for bass, but then again I've only half-heartedly tried once.

For your pleasure

Some salt time would be certainly be nice.

If the weather forecast holds, I'd love to get out on the Nehalem in the morning...even with a mild outgoing tide.

I fished tidewater on the nehalem last week. I don't think there is much happening....didn't even get my usual cutty. water was gin clear. That being said, I'm pretty sure I will be there Sunday and Monday 5/17 & 18.....probably surfing, maybe bottom fishing.

If any of you guys are going to be around that area for fishing, I would love to get salty with ya.

I keep thinking about heading south ... but but but ... any of you WA boys want to do some down riggin' for lakers at Cle Elum Lake?  It's a lot closer to Seattle than a 4 hour drive to Drano or OR coast.

I will be in Netarts this weekend.  If the forecast holds, I will either hit PC or points North on Saturday. forecast should settle out in the next day or so
