Well last July I took a bit of a vacation to come back to Oregon for some King fishing on my favorite creek. It took me a long time to get around to putting up the pics, but I am now ready to show the world what they have been missing. These are some of the best jump shots of big Kings I have seen. This creek is so small that these fish have no choice but to rocket up at out of the water. During the ten day vacation I was able to land 21 of these great fish, all on fly rod to boot. I hope you enjoy the pics and scenery shots.

Good luck out there.

Tommy and I went down to meet up with someone for a day on a new river, but he was a no show, so Tom and I had to find something to do. We hit up a little creek that we have had success on so far this season. Again it produced for us. I was able to grab one real nice Steelie, and Tom went 2 for 2. His second fish was a puker. Brad “Halibuthitman” got it on film. Hope to see it soon.

Here is a pic of my wife and I with her first Steelie in Ak last season.

Good luck out there.

I am having way to much fun this year so far. The Steelhead are everywhere we go, and they are some of the most aggressive I have seen in years. I have been using the fly rod off the bank for the last week and a half, and have had very good success with hooking up, but the landing has been an issue. Today was more like it, with 7 out of 11 to the hand. Tom also hooked many fish and landed 4 nice ones. The water is dropping fast right now and clearing on a daily basis, making it more difficult to approach without being seen. We have changed out tactics a bit, going to indicators and small presentation just off the bottom so the fish do not have to travel to take the offering. It seems to be working well the last two days. The pics and video’s from today were great, and I hope you enjoy them.

Good luck out there

Wow is the only thing I can say at this point of the season. I have been out everyday but one since the first, and between me and my two buddy’s, we got into over 80 fish. I will be the first to admit that we got our butts kicked. With over 80 hooked you would think that several nice fish would have found their way onto the camera, but that was not to be. We figured out that only 15 found the bank, the others ran, jumped, freaked out, and shook the hooks. I don’t know what to say except these fish were hot. We went down to 6 pound test to get the strikes, and man did that ever do it. With several doubles and one triple, we could not have asked for a better beginning. Hope the rest of the winter is just as good. Here are some pics, some may be from the first day and be duplicates of the last post. Also a couple pics of a few great guys I met over the week.

Good luck out there.

It has been a great couple days out on the water. Yesterday I continued my losing streak by farming my 12th fish with no results. Tommy on the other hand was killing them right next to me. He went 2 for 4, and I was 0 for 3. Today was a different story though. The morning started out real slow, with Doug being the only one to get into fish consistently. Then I got to talking to an older gentlemen that was there, and I got some real good hints for the day. Soon after I was hooked up and fighting one after another. I went 2 for nine today, Doug was 4 for ten, and poor Tommy came up empty, with 0 for 2. Also my buddy Anton got into a nice hatch fish and put it on the bank. We all walked out happy and content, “Except for Tommy” LOL.

Good luck out there.
