It's nice to know that there are still come fish in the Frank and Little Frank area. But I have also found the bite slow in the area, to say the least. That's why...

Beautiful photos and great fish.
It's nice to know that there are still come fish in the Frank and Little Frank area. But I have also found the bite slow in the area, to say the least. That's why...
I only fish top water, and it was one of my Dahlberg Divers, a bit bedraggled I'm afraid. Here is what they mean when they say large mouth.
Went out to Little Mandeville hoping it would be better than the Piper Slough/Sandmound area. It was. When she gently took it I thought I had another nice but not memorable fish. That changed about...
Maybe this should be under boats, but --- When I was out Tuesday I was standing and casting from the front of my small boat (those who have seen it know how small it is) about 25 feet from the...
I got out on the 26th. Didn't do as well as Hairstacker, but I didn't get skunked. Also a beautiful day with lots of wildlife. However, I have decided to give up on Sandmound Slough. It used to be so...
After a long forced absence I finally got up to the Delta to look at my boat (covered with cobwebs), clean it up and check things out. I guess everyone else knew, but I didn't, that Lundborg is now...
Sadly I won't be able to make it this time. :( My daughter and granddaughter are fleeing hurricane Ike and arrive here tonight at 11PM. They will be staying with us until they are able to return...
There appears to be a different technique for catching the larger fish. Nymphing with a fly such as my Oregon DUCK seems to catch lots of small to medium size fish. Larger fish seem to key on...
I just got back from the Big K on the South Umpqua and here are some of the results. The fly is an invention of mine that in Oregon is known as the Oregon DUCK. First fly I ever "invented" that...
What a day!!! I suspect he may be interested in going back for more now. :D Bring him along to the next Delta outing and let him see what happens to people who keep fishing their entire lives. On...
Nice fish Scott!!
I caught mine at 8 AM and an hour later the wind began to kick up. After that NADA. We should have started the party three hours earlier. :D :D
I hope that everyone had as good a time as I did, even with the WIND \:D/
Here is my photo of the one that didn't get away (23"). :D http://www.usfca.edu/fac-staff/davisr/Delta%205-3.jpg
I'll be there some time Friday afternoon. Look for the smallest boat on the water that can still mount a motor. :D
I agree about the wind. I was out with KD on Tuesday and they were measuring the...
OK, Scott, you got the last one. The 8 1/2 ft is the one that best shows the birdseye so that one is yours if you want it.
As Daffy Duck would have said, "Tha, Tha, That's All Folks!!!"
See you...
OK, Ed. See you there. :)
I'll be there Friday and Saturday. As a warm up I am going out with KD the prior Tuesday. :D
A side note, I have gotten into rod building and got a smokin deal from Sierra Trading Post on some...
My health is improving (biopsy on the 15th :( ). But I plan to keep getting healthier :D and have written in May 2 ad 3 to keep me motivated. Planning to see everyone there, at least on the 3rd. ...
I am still in recovery mode from the pneumonia :( , but I sure hope to be able to get around by October. If I am I will be sure to make one of the days.
Well, what I caught you don't want, pneumonia. :( :( :( :(
It's good to know that morning fishing hasn't been that great as I had planned a morning trip a week ago Tuesday. Everything looked...
OK, here it is. Not much really, just a variation on an ugly bug or girdle bug. But the lead eyes make it ride hook up and it is easily visible in deep water which is important when sight fishing on...
Scott,
You will have a great time!! I have a pattern that I developed that really worked well up there, but I suspect it only works within 100 miles of Eugene, Oregon, I call it the Oregon...
Here's that photo I promised. I caught about 40 of these the first day. June was a little slow this year I was told. :roll: They are now catching upwards of 100 a day :eek:. The really big ones...
I just got back so I will write more later, but let me tell you that a visit to the Big-K Ranch in Oregon is more than worth your time and money =D> =D> =D> The food is exceptional (three meals a...
I suspected that with all the wave action I could have gone subsurface for more fish. But I just prefer topwater and it's hard to get me to change. Even if I am not catching fish I can take...
Adam, I'm a retired professor, I don't have any money either. :lol: If you can't get Kevin to show you around I'm sure there are a few of us, including myself who would be willing to try and help....
