North Santiam River - February 17th, 2010
supplied by: The Patient Angler
RECORDED: 
48 °
FISHING: Good
Got a chance to get over and fish the North Santiam River a couple days ago. I made the drive over the hill and arrived at the first spot I wanted to fish just as the sun was coming up. I love the first run in the morning at first light; it always makes the bleary-eyed o-dark thirty drives to where ever you are going worth while.
The water was clear and running at about 1250cfs from the dam and 2600cfs below Mehama. The weather was warm with heavy overcast that soon turned to rain which continued most of the day. I didn’t have great expectations, but there have been a few reports of a fish or two being caught. I fished through my first run without a pull and hiked upstream to another run I like to fish and found my first fish of the day. About twenty minutes into the second run a really nice wild fish that went over 10 pounds grabbed my fly with a hard strike and the race was on. It took me a little while with it’s hard runs mixed in with a couple of jumps, but I was finally able to subdue this thick shouldered fish and bring him to hand. I fished through the rest of the afternoon and was delighted to hook two more fish, but failed to land either one with both coming unbuttoned during the fight for a LDR (long distance release).
I’m glad the days are getting longer because it kills me to have to call it a day when the fishing is good and it gets dark so early. The day came to an end and I headed back over the pass, which is a lot more enjoyable when you have a couple of fish to think about on the way home.

Sandy River - February 9th, 2010
supplied by: River Borne Outfitters, LLC
RECORDED: 
45 °
FISHING: Fair
Fishing conditions are tough. The rivers are low and clear. Tactics remain the same, cover a lot of water, swing everything, and find fish in transition. We continue to scratch out dime bright fish. We have been jumping some fish in really skinny water moving up river despite the lack of rain. For those waiting on the next big push of water to get after it...you may be in for a long wait. Weather forecasts are not good but you know how that goes.
See you on the river,
SS

John Day River - December 2nd, 2009
supplied by: The Patient Angler
RECORDED: 
42 °
FISHING: Fair
Hey Everyone!
Well, a buddy of mine and I went up the John Day to see if we couldn’t hook us a steelhead. We tried fishing way up river around Service Creek area. The water level bump just a little bit in the last few days, and we thought it might get some fish moving up in the river. We were wrong. We fished hard most of the day without a tug. The water temp was around 35 degrees, and the air temp wasn’t much warmer. I was wishing I had brought those new battery powered heated socks we just started carrying. It was the perfect condition to try them out, and I don’t see the weather warming up anytime soon. I might have to ask Santa for a pair. If you are thinking of fishing the John Day, you may want to fish some of the lower parts for now.

Davis Lake - November 16th, 2009
supplied by: Fly and Field Outfitters
FISHING: Poor
Davis is open all year. Expect adverse weather conditions in the next couple months. The trout would be the primary target with the freezing water and weather conditions. Look for the fishing to recover in the early spring, March and April.
