Hey Scott,
Hey there Richard and thanks for "welcome back" recovery is going to be a long one so no fishing for me this summer, I am sure drooling on the tuna, my weak spot, I love fishing for tuna, that has to be about the most exciting fishing there is around this part of the country and can never put enough on the shelf. I may still sneak in a trip out there by summers end if everything heals up good, you never know. In the meantime I'll have to go fishing vicariously through your reports. Thanks a bunch for thinking of us and sending in the report and pictures. I was surprised to see the tuna in this early, could be a good year for them and that will make up for some of the salmon fishing slow down.

Hi Scott,
Hi Dick, thanks for the report, the surgery went well, at least I think so, I'm sitting up working on websites again today so they must have done something right. Great pictures, I'm glad to hear reports of success coming our way. I have heard from a number of charters in the past week and it does appear that things are starting to warm up activity wise. The Tuna fishing on the Oregon coast has become one of my favorites and for anyone who has never tried it , it is certainly something I would encourage you to do. There are a few charters now that provide those types of long range trips, be sure to get your reservations early as those seats will fill quickly once things get underway.

6/23/2008 Hi everyone I will be out for a couple of days. I have to have a surgery done and while it relatively minor it has been taking a toll on my heath the past couple of years and I should feel allot better in a few days. I will catch-up with all report on Wednesday or Thursday. I'll also have some time to go through and clean thing up a little. In short we do have a new sponsor to add to the roles. I would appreciate it you would all make sure they feel welcome here and in our forum. I am going to be implementing a new forum setup here shortly that I think you will all really enjoy. It is going to be much easier to use and feature rich.

Hi Scott, Hello Dick thanks for your report, I'm glad to hear that the Halibut fishing has been good this year, the weather has been traditional this year with some windy afternoons but we have had some nice calm days in between. Sure helps for folks that want to get out there and get in some time on the ocean. Keep up the great job and if anyone is looking for halibut charter in your area I'm sure they will get in touch with you.

Hey Scott, Hello there Dan, thanks for your report, those are some beautiful fish you landed there. I am always glad to hear that folks are having some success out there. I know it has been hot and cold fishing for salmon this spring and now early summer. I hope that things continue to shape up for the 2008 fishing season and that we continue to get more reports.
6/8/2008 Hi Scott Amy & I took our friends Linda & Jerry fishing on the Columbia River and had a terrific time! We took our time in the morning, and still caught 36 shad before Noon. Then we moved to a deep hole, hooked up a couple of the fresh shad, and tied Linda into this big boy. Linda and Amy had to take turns on this one; took nearly 50 minutes to land. Linda’s biggest sturgeon yet; measured right at nine feet long! It was a great day of fishing with some great friends. Take care, Rod Lathrop
Hi Rod, that is truly a monster sturgeon you folks tied into there. I fished the Columbia allot as a kid and have tangled with a few of those biggens myself. I'm glad you folks got out there and had some fun. Not allot of reports coming our way yet but it's still early. Thank for keeping all of us here at fish-works.com in mind.
6/3/2008 A few being caught in the upper river, these three were caught this first week of June, in main river by four first time Chinook fishermen, Jeremy Thom, Will Leenders, Paul Linton and my 5 year old greatgrand son, Landon Thom. Landon helped his dad reel in the 14 lb one on the left. Will caught the biggest one just as we were getting ready to quit , 24lbs. There were a couple of Hundred fish at the ladder Saturday waiting for them to open the gate, and I heard a few were caught Saturday at the River Forks and up at the Narrows. We put in 5 hrs at the Forks Friday with five other boats and never seen a fish caught. Shad fishing at Yellow creek boat ramp has not been as productive as in the past, but some are being caught. Also I have been advised by those at NORTH RIVER BOATS sales, that if you leave fuel in your boat tank for more than 60 days, to start adding a stabilizer to your fuel to protect against the ethanol that we now have to deal with in our gasoline. I was told that the ethanol has a 60 to 90 day shelf life. I don't know that for a fact, but two could sources advised me. Have a good summer, The Blue Skunk
Now this is the kind of picture I live for. All the days, weeks, months and years of posting reports here, this is what it all about for me. Seeing friends and family out spending time together and fishing. Some nice looking fish to make the trip even better. I had heard about the fuel situation and I'm glad you mentioned that in your post, it is something that all of us need to think about. I just finally got my boat fully functional and had a little trouble getting it to fire up after sitting for awhile, I think it might have helped to have added a stabilizer like you mentioned. I sure hope fuel prices settle down some. Well thanks again for thinking of us, sure appreciate you talking a moment to share your report with us.
6/2/2008 Hi We have had several good days in Bandon. The bar has been nice and smooth. The wife and I have taken advantage of it. We have caught several big Ling Cod and huge Vermillion and lots of Blue Rock fish with a sprinkling of Cabezon a Quill Back Rock fish and more.
Hope all is well Check out our new web site for the Bandon Crab Derby My wife and I started it two years ago. we will be giving away a top prize of $1000.00 read all about it at my web site
Hello Dave, sounds like you and the wife have been pretty busy with the bottom fishing this spring, glad the ocean has cooperated with your efforts. I hope we get lots of those days this year. I was also pleased to see you and your wife's efforts with the crab derby website. Sounds like allot of fun, you will have to keep us posted. Thanks for the report and the photos.
6/2/2008 Hi Scott, We made the run out on Saturday, it was pretty slow going as it took a bit over two hours to get out to the hole. Only two other boats were out there, sounded like a couple others were farther out at the banks and not doing well. We picked up two almost instantly, then managed the other two in less than two hours. The drift was too fast, so I had to back down to control it. The run in was great in the following seas, back at the dock by noon. We used shad and salmon bellies. Keep em' tight, Richard - Tia Maria Richard Santos
Hi there Richard, those are a couple of the bigger Halibut we have seen brought home this year for sure. Most have been a little on the small side so far, great job. I'm glad the weather cooperated with all our Halibut fishermen and women this year, and that most were able to get out there and back without to much trouble. I sure appreciated you taking a few minutes to think of all of here at Fish-Works upon your return. It has been slow getting everyone back up to speed reporting this year, but we seem to be gaining some momentum recently.
6/1/2008 Hi Scott Just a quick note to you guys to let you know we are still at it out on the big pond, this is the action from Thursday and Fridays trips. We are getting a lot of calls at the tackle store asking if the pink fin perch are running in the river yet, they have been spotted in the bay in recent days but nothing up river reported yet, but it will be soon so call us at the shop for the real scoop. Captain Rick www.salmonharborcharterfishing.com
Hey there Capt. Rick, it's been a day or two, sure is nice to hear from you again. Nice to see all those folks coming home with the Halibut. Looks like the ocean decided to cooperate this spring and you managed to get a little time on the water. Lets hope it stays cooperative this year. Looking forward to hearing from you again, we have all missed your reports during your off season.
6/1/2008 Hi Scott, Made a fun Halibut trip with Joe & Ted Grisby yesterday. Joe and Ted were great to fish with and we had a super time. We caught 5 halibut and a lingcod out of Newport; bringing home 3 halibut. The halibut seem to be running smaller this year, so far. All of our fish were between 15-20 pounds. Take Care, Rod Lathrop
Hello Rod, thanks for the report. The ocean has been fairly cooperative lately, with folks managing to get out and back without too much trouble. Sounds like you managed to get in to enough fish to make the trip worth while. That is what I have been seeing too, we may see bigger ones getting caught the further we get into the year. Sure appreciate you thinking of us and taking time to send us a report and a photo.
Larry Moore's Salmon Fishing Brine Recipe for Herring
I tried this bait my first time out fishing with Larry Moore a few years ago and had a 50lb Chinook in the boat 15 minutes after we put our lines in the water. We had two in the box in less then thirty five minutes.
