oregon walleye

Hay Larry just wondering if or when you would consider doing a show in Oregon's Columbia river for walleye. From my research our average fish are a trophy fish in most other states. Would be cool to see you're approach to these fish here in Oregon. If you need some help I would love to help lol. Just no t.v. stuff for me.

Hi RF
I've fished out there for 'eyes three times and caught fish up to the mid teens, but there are much larger fish, and the time to be there is right now!!
IMO, and to my knowlege, they have never really been approached from the "how to target the largest ones" point of view.
One of these days...

Awesome Larry were you taping any of those trips and if so were can I get one. And also what part of the river did you fish. "Rufus" by chance. I'm heading there this Saturday for the first time ever. Going with a old timer who I might learn from and also teach some things to. about some new swim baits called " magic swimmers" I know u have herd of them lol. Good luck all year Larry and be safe. From Oregon. REEL FAST.


Do you have any tips i might try. Something or color that might help catch a whopper.

But don't get caught. LOL
Fishing with live fish is not legal in those waters. :cry:
I think my bucket list has a hole in the bottom!
