Fishing has really picked up this last week in the willamette! I have been concentrating mainly on the Columbia the past couple weeks since the willamette has been a little off color. Last night I decided it was time to see what was going on in the willamette since the water has been clearing gradually. We were rewarded with 2 nice hatchery spring chinook for the 3 hours that we fished. That was a great sign for things to come!!!
