Name is MikeWolff. I am 71yo and not into long walks on the beach, a long day of fishing however, is a lot of fun. I've lived in Oregon since I was 8yo.Texan by birth, Hook 'em Horns. Machinist, Safety & Health Consultant by trade. Grew up in The Dalles and loved the fishing in that area. Guided in the area for a long time. Charter member of the Original Columbia River Bass and Walleye Club in The Dalles, Member of and fished for Budweiser's National Fishing Team Captained by John Maynard. Factory field rep and tester for Lure Jensen, Shimano, Pro-Cure,and Smoker Craft factory. 5 USCG Near Costal and all Inland Waters Captain's renewals. Now I am completely retired and back in the area after a long absence from Portland. If Buz Ramsey is on here and isn't to old to remember me, he could verify;-)
I am generally very short with my texts but, you got me started. Walleye and salmon are my area favs, working on the walley part here. Used to haul em in by the live well full below JD Dam, especially at night.
Particularly looking for good mid week plunking spots. I have a lot of time on my hands. I've done my years of volunteering and that makes me more selfish with my time. My favorite cause to support is "Get Hooked", look Deshaun Berry up and offer any donations of gear in support. I live with my Electrician son. 2 Bachelor's with a 16.5 Smoker Alaskan with 2 ft itis.
I have more gear than I will ever use but I'm going to try. Like I said, you got me started, but now I'm done, it's been nice for me to remember some of my youth. Keep em tight! Be well.
Mike
