I don't think I have many expectations actually, just finding somebody who will actually go. Out of the two fishing partners I have, one of them frequently cancels the night before or morning of and the other is currently leaving me on read. So, I agree there is no perfect fishing partner but...
I've lived in the PDX area for 4 years and have had trouble meeting anyone to go fishing with. I'm currently prepping for winter steelhead season and would love a partner in crime for both the safety and camaraderie. Any advice on how to connect with people in the area?
Pic 1 is version 1 of a jigged comet style fly targeting coho/steelhead. I had a fish on the line with it and also a grab or two throughout the day. The 2nd fly is version 2 of the same concept and I hope to try it soon.
