From the Back Cover

Whether you're interested in trolling for salmon or fly-fishing for steelhead, dredging the Columbia for sturgeon or casting a spinner for bass, it may be surprising to learn that some of the best fishing inthe Northwest is only a lure's toss away from the commotion of downtown Portland. Combining a master angler's encyclopedic knowledge of fish behavior with an Oregonian's love for the place, author Jim Yuskavitch shows us more than twenty locations all around the City of Roses, presenting each one with a set of concise driving directions, a quick look at the species to be caught at the location, and an indispensable, thumbnail description of the best techniques to use in order to bring that lunker to hand. Inside you'll find: - Descriptions of the area's game fish - Tips on lures, flies, bait, tackle, and techniques- Information on access and regulations- Maps and photos
