Labor Day Weekend


This weekend I went to Black Butte Ranch in central Oregon with my friends Ryan and Adam and their family. On Friday night, Ryan and I picked up Adam and his wife Kelsey in Roseburg at 2:00 am and took them with us to their house at Black Butte. It was a surprise to everyone because Ryan and I were the only ones that knew that they were coming. On Saturday, we hung around the house and watched football, and socialized with everyone that was there. We were almost evacuated due to the fire that was encroaching on the ranch. That evening Ryan, Adam and I went fishing on the Metolius river. We all got skunked like usual. Sunday Ryan and I took off early in the afternoon and fished Squaw Creek (Wychus Creek). We each caught fish on hoppers. That evening Kim and Tim picked us up and we proceeded to fish the Deschutes River near Steelhead Falls. The fishing was good with all of us catching several nice size fish. A bead head copper john or light cayhills seemed to be the ticket. This weekend, I decided that I am going to keep a note book and make a record of all of the places that I go fishing. That way I will have a record of where I was and what was working or not working at that time for future reference. I made my first note book entry this evening.
