Hey Toad - had a coworker move out there a few years ago. He says the river by Portland is full of monster walleyes but nobody around there fishes for them. He says they are treated like carp are around here. What's up with that?

Yeah that is true. Not many people fish for them here. I think they just dont know much about them and concentrate on the salmon and trout or sturgeon. its ok it leaves more for those who do know and like to fish for them. It is becoming increasingly more popular though.

I had two flatheads straighten out my hook yesterday. The only thing they will bite on is those green and black crappie tubes. Weirdest thing I've ever seen

I'd say about 20 or so.
I've never eaten a flathead before, and I've heard the bigger they are, the worse they taste. I want to try one, but I don't want to kill a big fish like this just to find out that I don't like it. It was his lucky day, because most people down there don't release them. Last edited by George Liquor; 07-02-2015 at 08:28 PM.. Reason: Stupid phone grammar |

Good man, if you dont plan to eat it... let it go. I know people who have cattle/pig troughs at their home and they'll take big cats like that home and put them in a tank of well water for a few days before chopping them up into fritters. Its supposed to clean out the old, muddy taste and my tastebuds think its probably true... but I'm glad he went back in to create another generation worth catching. Last week, went out to one of my favorite spots at the big local lake about 10 am... someone just hours earlier caught two really nice 8-10 pound channel cats and just threw them on the bank to die, they were both half stinking by the time I got there. Would love nothing more than to beat their faces in with the ax handle I keep in the truck... if you're going to eat it, fine... but to just throw them on the bank and leave them to die blows my blood pressure through the roof. I was so mad I could hardly even fish for atleast a half hour after I threw them back in to an out of the way area... "whats WRONG with you people?" |

That's shitty.
People who pull crap like that should have their privileges revoked. Yesterday while fishing I saw a 5-6lb wiper floating around the river and was bothered by it. I was hoping it died of some sort of natural causes, because if someone killed if and tossed it back.. I'd be a mad person. |

The spot I've been fishing attracts the worst. People trash it, fish right on top of you, keep fish under length limits and over creel limits, snag game fish (big flatheads) and keep them.
A few years ago they shut the river down to fishing because all of the scummies wrecking it. Last edited by George Liquor; 07-02-2015 at 08:53 PM.. |
