Three things to do this weekend
Fishing lines bind generations together
PUGET SOUND — Grandfathers taking grandsons — and granddaughters — fishing is a tradition that started well before we humans started keeping track of time a few thousand years ago.
Catch rate is rising for fly anglers
All Western Washington rivers are dropping into shape, and the fly fishing has been getting better by the day.
Fishing report: Coho and steelhead are biting in several rivers
Heavy rains blew out most rivers on this side of the mountains last week, but conditions have been steadily improving.
Likely no fishing for lower Columbia spring chinook in 2009
It's not official yet, but very likely there will be no spring chinook salmon fishing in 2009 in the Columbia River downstream of the Willamette, or in the Willamette River itself.
