When I go to Kodiak to fish for silvers every so often, I cast from shore to "targets" (i.e., jumping or finning fish). On a typical day, I will start about 7:30 AM and fish until dusk. I...

Caspian Tern Patrol
Hi,
I guess the little guys (smolts, that is) are making their ways down the Alsea and out to sea this week judging from the ODF&W skiffs bombarding the skies with rockets.

Then, too, a lot of planes seem to be crashing going to...

Happy New Year
Hi,
Coming home yesterday I saw billions of drift boats on the Alsea. Must be something going on. River is in gorgeous shape.
Have a great year!
Cheers,
