Tough day on the Columbia, Stevenson WA, 27 Sept 2020
My first trip on the big C in a kayak. Went in not knowing a lot and left with gaining some knowledge. I only ended up with 4 on the day. A 3lb 4oz (which is sweet), a dink and two in the 15-16" range.
My partner on the day drubbed me catching 8 nice smallmouth.
We both wasted a lot of time learning the area and fishing (what we now understand) is unproductive water. Next trip should be better (I hope).
Here is a short video of landing my biggest fish and the bumpy pedal back!
