Memorial Day Weekend fishing plans??

[Bait O' Eggs]

Does anybody have any big fishing plans for the holiday weekend??

I am going to central Oregon and camping on a mountain with no water anywhere near it. Going to drown my springer blues with some elk scouting.

[Bigdog]

Fishing the clack all weekend..... Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon.... :cheers:

[Fish Hunter]

Good luck with the scouting. I plan to shift gears as well.

Got all three days to fish with the better half. Staying at a B&B nr the John Day ramp.
Any Ifishers out around Astoria over the weekend that want to find fish and swap lies over the cell phone send me an email and we'll exchange cell #s.

Odell all three days to hopefully catch a bucket load of koknaee for the smoker. :cool:

[Drifty]

Four days at hells canyon. Can't wait.

[Thumper]

Paulina Lake to fish for kokes, which I know nothing about.

[Gus Orviston]

I think I will fish with a nice fellow I met on the river at the falls in OC :wink: He had lots of room in his sled and enjoys casting spinners. :whazzup:

I might try to send "Salvage" back to rock bottom, or go combat fishing at a secret hole on the Will....tte

and YARD WORK of course.

Four days on the Rogue for springers. Cannot wait.

[metalhead madness]

springers on the clack on friday with dan dixon. sat-mon clack as well with my boat. If too crowded graemlins/icon_argue.gif maybe some easy pickins @ north fork res. for planters. :cheers:

[Fishing freak]

2 day's of drifting on the deschutes below wickiup(Browns and Rainbows) and 2 day's
on the upper Rogue chasing springers. Hey "Fishguy", what section of the Rogue are you fishing?

[garyk]

I forsee early mornings on the Mult. Channel for springers.

Then, maybe try anchoring-up in the Frenchmans Bar or Lewis River area of the Columbia for those steelys that are coming through.

And perhaps Coon Island for some shad.

[Myles]

No plans, but was thinking possibly Port Townsend area for some bottom fishing.

Anyone know anything about Halibut up there?? I'd hate to waste a weekend if nothings going on.

thanks, myles

[RIPPLE]

A little bit of crabbing on Nehalem Bay, then up to Gearheart to dig some razor clams. I wish everyone a safe and happy 3-day weekend.
:grin: RIPPLE :grin:

[STGRule]

Expand the patio, plant the veggie garden, shad fish, clamming and crabbing.

[birdhunter]

Thursday, Friday, Saturday - Umpqua for springers and shad.
Sunday, Monday - Clackamas for springers and steelies, or Columbia for shad and oversize.

[hookem]

Take the kids to O.C. for shad. Its going to be like Fishin mission say's "combat fishin."
Wish I could get away to some where fun but I have to stay close to work.

[fishchaser]

We are heading to Tillamook tomorrow and am going to crab for Thursday.

The old man has to work the weekend, so we have to do this early. Good thing I forgot it was the Memorial Day Exodus. Now we will have the bay all to ourselves. Hope the Crab show up though. It would be a big bummer to got down and go crabbing and have no one around, not even the crab. :shocked:
Hope we get enough to feed everyone on the board. graemlins/stupid.gif

[fish_on]

Idaho for salmon, moral mushrooms, brain mushrooms, and beer.

[Deleted User]

I want to camp out and get some fly fishing in but my wife is past her due date. I guess my fishin days are over for awhile! Oh well, I hope you guys get into some!

[King Fisher]

T Bay w/ Bob Rees/the guides forecast for some big springers, then off with the family to a secluded lake in ranier for bass and graemlins/lurk.gif trout.

[cannonball]

Im gonna fish for cutthroat on the lake my dad fished for 20 years!!! Hope the fish are in the same old spots :smile:

[dogfishboy]

Going to spend four days in Rockaway. Plan on doing some surf fishing for surfpearch and some clamming. Good series of tides. Going to come back to town Monday night to drop off the wife and 3 dogs, do some laundry, and then back down all week for springers. :cheers:

Then I have a few weeks :hoboy: of H.I.Ps ( home improvement projects) to get done before steelheading picks up around St Helens.

Anyone been clamming or heard how it has been in Garibaldi? Any input would be appreciated. Post or email me. Many Thanks.

[Thick-N-Thin]

Going to Wickiup for browns and kokes for the three days, just I and my youngest son and hundreds of others I'm sure. Maybe the weather culls some out! :tongue:

[plugs'n'bugs]

I'm headed up the Quartzville arm of Green Peter to do some camping with my neighbor. I got rid of the kids so I'll be able to do some serious fishing. Although I'm not holding my breath cause I'm hopeless and boatless.

[AngleThis]

Still debating. Thinking either Astoria for ocean salmon if it's not too rough, sturgeon, crab, and razors, or farther south Newport way for the same if doable, and a definite herring restock. Right now NOAA reports suggest I will be heading south. Any other ifish couples heading down that way?

Does anyone have a HOT ocean salmon report?? I'm tired of the one fish per 50 hours thing. 5 fish per hour sounds a lot better and that's doable on big blue.

Birdhunter, stopped by winchester dam to view the
migrating spring HOGS, lots of them going through right now. Good luck and post a report.

[M W Sheller]

'Hope y'all have a safe, great time. Looks like I gotta work, not regular folks hours, but 12 hr. NITES, 6PM-6AM :mad: :mad: :mad: So think about me this week-end,'cause I'll sure be thinkin' 'bout you :depressed: :depressed: :depressed:

[CATCH AND EAT]

Columbia Sturgeon on Saturday, church Sunday, and either Wind or Clackamas Springers. Still undecided on location for Monday.

Tried a coulpe of holes last night on the clack with one hard take and not a fish. :depressed: Fished above Carver.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!! Keep Safe.

Angle This....wear a life jacket dude!! graemlins/idea.gif

[fishchaser]

Anyone headin to Mt. Hood for some trout, can just put the boat back in the garage. Went up to Timothy, by way of Hyw 26. Everything from Clear Creek, Trillium, Clear lake, Timothy, Ollaie, and all those other lakes along the road ARE ALL STILL SNOWED IN!!!! I had reservations at Timothy and they called and said they would not be open until the 6th of June. When we went up there you could not get into Trillium or Clear Lake, or Timothy. Hopefully next week they MIGHT be open, but with the low snow levels I doubt it.

[fishbait]

Too many people for me to go camping, so I am taking my daughter and neighbor boy shad fishing on Wilamette. Will also throw a couple of bobber rods is as just might have to have kids catch a springer.

Good luck to all and be safe..........

[Firedog]

Might hit the Sandy for a morning otherwise I am going to be doing things around the house trying to avoid those Holiday weekend crowds. :smile: Might head up the Kalama to do some work on Grandfathers property also. Working Fri and Mon. Everyone keep it safe, last way I want to meet any of you is while we are getting you out of your wrecked car.

BOE- elk scouting this early? When do you hunt them?

I am taking 6-7 kids fishing for Trout and Kokanee. I am camping at a Washington lake.
No relaxing, just biking, hiking, and canoeing.I got to get in shape so I can swim the Columbia, go rock climbing, or pull in a 18 foot Sturgeon.

[kevray]

Going to trade in the Springer rods for my Bass rods so I can remember what its like to have a fish on the hook.

Weather permitting, see if my daughter can out fish me again on some scrappy rainbows.

Everyone have a fun and save weekend. :cool:

This weekend usually starts the Elk spotting season for us as well. But with a busy schedule we actualy started last Sat. If you want to see Elk now is the time to go!

[Whopper Stopper]

With a house full of girls and relatives at the beach this weekend I'll sneak off in my float-tube and sweet-talk some big bass out of the pads on Cullaby with a rabbit eel. Good luck to all and watch out for the "I can't get there quickly enough wackos!"

[SailCat]

I'll be on Tillamook Bay Sunday for sure with my favorite fishin' buddies: Pro Guide Bob Rees, my wife and buddy Rich G.

Kingfisher - You too? What day are you going out?

Leaving the salmon and steelhead this weekend and trying a little surf perch fishing on the Long Beach Peninsula. First time doing it so I read up on old posts and we'll see what happens. Scott (hot tamale). My buddy Curt will be on the Deschutes below Wickiup this weekend. If you see a silver "River Wild" driftboat, say hey.
