Brand spankin new to river fishing

[Fish4chrome]

I grew up lake and ocean fishing with my dad and just recently started river fishing. Lost my fishing partner and am hoping to find someone that's willing to show me a thing or two. I'm in the Portland area but am willing to drive to fish wherever. I've fished coastal rivers a few times. Ive had a hard time finding other chicks to fish with and there's a lot of guys out there not willing to have a woman in their boat, so I thought I'd see what I could find here on ifish. Thanks!

You need to upgrade the quality of boys you hang out with. I think having a woman, women or girls in the boat equals more fish in the boat. No ego problem here being out fished by a woman.

Unfortunately, we live three hours east of you so we're not really a good option for you. PM me if you're ever in the Hermiston area. Lots of nice folks on ifish so I'm sure the offers will come in.

Good luck

I agree about the upgrade there. It's not really guys I'm going out with just some of the dudes I've fished with before, weather with my dad or my cousins friends. there's always a chance I could end up that direction. Thanks for the post!

That sounds great, I'll be there! Is there a web site where I can find more information?

http://www.sandysteelheaders.org/ is the website for you its a great place to go for someone who is in need of learning... I'd be willing to go fishing with you maybe the Nestucca I live in Vancouver, WA but almost always have some money laying around to pitch in for gas... As you can see I don't drive, I'm 18 years old and still in high school... PM me if your interested in going fishing sometime here within the next few weeks...

thanks,

Dan
