Brown report

At the end of their 5 day trip to Oregon chasing trophy rainbows and browns my nephew Guy Carl and his father in law Reed stayed with us Tuesday night. Guy shared a few pics with me and I thought I'd share them on here. They fished Klamath Friday and caught a few nice rainbows to 6 lbs, then Crescent with me on Sat and Sun and Reed got his 1st brown. Then on to Wickiup in the windstorm on Monday where they each got a 6lber.

Then on to Paulina Mon afternoon where it still looks more like winter than early May.

They fished most of the day Tuesday finishing with 10 smaller browns with a 20" being the biggest.

Reed said Guy almost killed him between the nasty cold, whitecaps, wind and relentless hours on the water......and he can't wait till next time. Guy's 25 year tradition of trips to Central Oregon continues.

Wow, looks like another good trip for your nephew

Glad to see they did well on Klamath, she has been pretty stingy this spring. Thanks for the report.

Now I am really torn, I was hoping to get over there and fish for koke's but now I am thinking Browns do sound like fun. I love that head shaking action!

Beware that sometimes loooooong periods of time can go by between fish when chasing big browns. I was shutout on the opener at Wickiup. 3 guys and 4 rods in 7 hours for nada.
