A few years ago a couple of us fished opening day for steelhead on the upper Wilson River in Northwest Oregon. We came upon a hole that was about six feet deep but the water clarity was such that you couldn't see bottom. We were using jigs with small baits and right off the bat we had a double. Within the next couple hours we had hooked close to thirty fish and lost count of the number of fish landed and released. The fish would hit practically every color jig we tossed at them. At noon I had to quit and go work the swing shift.

This was a once in a lifetime morning of fishing that will probably never be duplicated as the river is now open year-round and this particular hole is very well known today.
