PDX Bluegill?

[MarlinMark]

I am going to be teaching my 10yr old how to cast a fly this spring. Where is a good place to get into some bluegills in the Portland area? I would like to get out in my drift boat so he has plenty of back cast room :smile:

Thanks,

Mark :cheers:

I believe blue lake out by Troutdale has em and also good ol Hagg Lake out by Banks has a good population.

You might also try Vernonia Lake. It has a good population of bluegill, perch and crappie. Also some bass and is stocked regularly with trout.

st lewis ponds has a great population of blue gill and the nice thing about there it has a lot of room for him to learn his back cast rp

If you want to take your driftboat, my vote goes to Vernonia Pond. There are some nice gills and crappie in there also some HUGE bass stunted yellow perch and lots of stocked trout in the spring.
