The fishing on the Columbia around ridgefield was so poor, I packed up and headed to palm springs. Wednesdays adventure was canceled but I did sneak out for about an hour by myself mainly to make sure everything was in order before the kid took over command
The kid worked the river over yesterday and got one hit on a kwikfish on anchor. He said there where a lot of boats on the river and didn't see any fish caught. He reported that the highlight of the day was sitting in the boat out of the downpour with the heater blasting while watching an open guide boat full of customers, all wearing garbage sack rain coats
