but they are going fast. A big thanks to all of the people who
caught Shad with us in May and June. FISHING REPORT June, 2006
Todd Inman looks on as his son holding up his first Shad caught on 6/5/06. Shad fishing has been spotty because of high water levels, but there seems to be a lot of Shad and the rest of June should be just excellent. We are also catching Smallmouth Bass and that will even get better as the water warms up. So now is the time to book a Shad and Smallmouth Bass combo trip. May 5, 2006
This is Lance Wetteland form Roseburg with the first Shad of the year. Yes the Shad are in and it will just get better as the water drops.

Chinook caught on the Sixes river late in November. We had a great
Salmon season from September to to the end of December. Now we are

We are still catching winter Steelhead. Last week we had 3 trips and we hooked 23 fish size form 8 to 15 lbs. Some were down river fish and some were up river fish in great shape. Yesterday we hooked and landed 3 Steelhead. One was a down river fish and two were nice bright fish weighing 9 lbs and 12lbs. On Sunday we got a 15lb. Spring Chinook. Spring Chinook fishing has been slow. If we get rain the river will rise and that will bring up more Springers. All the rivers in the area need rain to get the Springer fishing going. It is raining now and we just hope it will rain more for us. I have heard of reports that some shad are being caught also. Now is the time to get your Springer and Shad trips booked. Your guide, Fishing Report 3-29-2004
A good day on the North Umpqua. My boat hooked 8 steelhead but we only landed 3. All were about 8 to 12 lbs. Dan's boat hooked 10 steelhead and one of them was 16 lbs. On Saturday the first Spring Chinook was landed when fishing for steelhead. So, in about two to three weeks we should see more and more Spring Chinook hook ups. Now is the time to get Spring Chinook trips booked for the later part of April and the first part of May. Also get your Shad trip booked for the second half of May and June. Your guide, Fishing Report 3-13-2004
The first 1/2 of March we were doing very well on winter steelhead with many big fish in the high teens. On the North and South Umpquas. Now we have switched over to the North Umpqua and will remain there till the end of April. At the present time fishing is a bit slow the water is too low and clear and the fish are hard to get. Yesterday 3/13/04 we hooked 4 fish and landed 2 and they were around 9 lbs. Just last week we were hooking around 5 to 8 fish a trip many around 10 to 18 lbs. All we need is some rain and we will be catching nice fish once more and maybe a Spring Salmon or two. Now is the time to get a Spring Salmon trip or a Shad trip booked. Just call or e-mail.
