Here are a few of the pictures from the season.  I started Fall salmon trolling August 14th and went through October 29.  I had a great time this year.  Fall is a great time of year.  The weather was great this year allowing to spend time on the Jetty which I grew to love.  The big fish was 39lbs caught by Mark in the above picture.

Summer fishing.

Summer fishing was pretty relaxed this year.  I only spent a few days on the Umpqua for smallmouth.  The majority of my days were spent on the McKenzie fishing for trout.  It is nice only fishing 45 minutes from home.

Sturgeon season was good.




Our fishing this year was the best we have had in three years.  The weather was relatively good compared to the years past. The wind stayed down most days allowing us to fish where we wanted.  These are just a few shots from last season.

Giant body, small horned buck.

I know this is not fishing, but here is my mighty buck I shot this year with my muzzleloader.  My buddy Dusty and I spent five days muzzleloader hunting this October.  We had lots of action, but this was all we brought home.  The horns may be small, but the backstrap is good. 

Douglas with a springer.

Here is my old buddy Douglas with a springer he caught with me a while back.  The reason this picture is important is that Doug died of cancer this year.  He was a great guy who loved to fish.  He was always a go getter no matter what the weather.  I will miss him in the boat.
