Gilbert area

[Jennie@ifish]

Gilbert River slough area of Multnomah channel:
Our contact who fished it this morning said that he heard of only 5 fish caught. None of which were fin clipped. Lots of guide boats in the area.

Thanks Jen, That parallels the reports I received today. But, the fish are there! Things have been good in that area throughout this week. They seem to get thicker every hightide series. A good freshet might put 'em on a hot bite! ???

On the positive side, my trusted neighbor (meaning I'll see the fish!)is bringing 3 keepers home as I type. Released one additional native. Fish on!!

Picked up a 16 pounder today. Partner had one bait stripped. Bite was fair...not hot. Saw 3 on at a time, once, and a couple other doubles. Herring was the bait of choice.
