A very nice two day vacation on the John Day River near Rufus, OR

This was a great trip though the fishing was slow (we only shot the fish we caught, not the hours on the water…).

My father-in-law, John K., and Don G. were great fishing companions as always on the John Day at the end of October.   John brought the camper over and a good time was had by all.  Don was a little miffed that my Red Sox knocked off his Indians in the ALCS however!

Seth’s first elk hunt ever (spike bull hunt in Oregon’s coast range)

This was a hunt on Sunday, November 18, 2007 in the Wilson Unit (Tillamook State Forest, Oregon) with my good friend and fellow grouse-chaser Ian F. We deviated from the normal ruffed and blue grouse pursuit to try  for elk steaks for the freezer.

Early November Deschutes trip with Gary H.

An adventure on the Deschutes River in November

- The steelhead and large trout were feeding heavily on chinook salmon eggs.
