Salmon Spawning in Oregon

We had an abnormally nice almost November day
for Oregon on Saturday. Headed out to the Columbia
River Gorge. Saw tons of salmon, including several
4ft Kings, trying to get up Eagle Creek. Hopefully we
get some rain soon.

Very nice photos Ken thanks for sharing........One of the good things
about ROFF is that most folks share photos so those of us that have
never been there can see if we want to go there

What caliber bullet do you use for shooting those fish in a barrel?

If you really wanted one, you'd just reach out and
pick one up. There are multiple places where they
are in maybe 1" of water.

There's no fishing for them here.

Great photos of the fish stacked up.

Hope forecasts for rain later in the week are prove correct.

Last year they were giving frozen ones away. The ideal was you pack
em out to your favorite river or creek and throw the carcaras in to
fertilize the water. All those fish came out of the hatchery.

A lot of the fish out of that hatchery get caught in the ocean and at
the mouth of the Columbia.

I'm not sure that all the fish are from the hatchery. All these
pics were upstream from the hatchery.

I didn't think to look at the time, but I can see the
unclipped adipose fin in many of the photos.

Ah, I got it. Your link is the wrong Eagle Creek (the one
by Estacada), not the one on the Columbia Gorge.
