Salmonbelly - You struck on the main reason that I spend the majority of my computer time on other boards. It seems that a lot of the people here are too afraid to post fishing information.

When they do its, "hey, so-and-so check your e-mail". Same thing on chat. As soon as the subject turns to fishing the "private chat" starts.

This is a good board to find out what people think of rods or hooks or jigs but as far as up to date fishing info, forget it.

And no, I will not be headed for Drano soon, even with over 48,000 springers over the dam the last two days.

By the way, we have been doing pretty good anchored in the Willamette running red prawn/spinners on 40" leader with 36" dropper in 30' of water. Tide change has been the hot bite. Five last weekend, largest 21lbs.

Thanks for one of the few posts with actual fishing info.
