Today is a cold and windy day across the region, and a reminder that spring is a transitional time. We win and we lose when it comes to the weather, but winning on the fishing more and more. It was so windy down on the Metolius this morning there were some trees down. And snowflakes … Continue reading Fishing update 4/10/21

No fishing for me today, because the Pine Needle Piper needs to be paid... and the … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing report 10/25/20
