All in due time Jer, I'm in no hurry.LOL.
As you cross the Lewis river bridge in Woodland, WA, by the gas station, you look to the left we lived in the first house on the river. Drive up Hayes road passed the boat landing and over the hill the first left. Did your sister go to the auction there on the right on Hayes road? If she did she probably met my wife and her friend they were there every week.
We lived in Martinez when we were in the Bay Area. Small world! Thanks for the welcome.
Welcome Sterba! Grew up fishing Broad River try to get back there couple times a year & fish Wylie for bass & Norman for crappies bass cats & caught few stripers there too.
Jeremy, they wouldn’t be secret if I told him. LOL
Great float trip from 9 mile to Irene bridge for smallmouth.
Welcome to FS, Donald !

Absolutely Gordon, also Farmboy,and Bucky B.and probably a couple more I can't remember. I'm actually thinking about a tour for 3months or so,around the country,to visit some of the legendary lakes some of these guys get to fish daily. Probably have to settle in for a year,first,but it's a definite possibility.LOL

Woodland Washington!!!! that’s where I do all my fishing. My sister and BIL live right on the Lewis 4 miles up Hayes Rd. But I love fishing for Kokanee on lake Merwin. Gave up on the salmon and steelhead. They’re just not showing up like they use to. I also live in the Bay Area. East bay. Grew up and lived there ‘57-2002. Oh and welcome to the stage😜
Dave I replied to you but failed to do a quote reply. My bad.

Got cha...matter of fact I came down to Woodland yesterday. Is the house you lived in the one with the big deck all the way around? I saw it coming across the bridge. No my sister doesn’t do auctions or flee markets. But I stopped by there one time and they were auctioning off lettuce. 😂 Martinez huh. Dad and I use to launch it of the marina there rack in the 70’s / 80’s to fish for sturgeon at the mothball fleet. We would come there from Castro Valley. Small world. What took you to SC?

My wife has three sons here that I helped raise and she wanted to retire here. I’m originally from Louisiana and she is from West Virigina. My job require me to travel, that’s how I met her and how I wound in in California and Washington, with a stop in Kansas and North Dakota. We spent 13 years in Martinez and 7 in Woodland. Our house had 2 decks on the back and was actually hard to see from the bridge due to the trees. My wife had a friend named Ann that lived 4 1/2 miles up Hayes, see was a widow and her husband was a chiropractor. I fished the mothball fleet quite a bit myself.
