Hot off a trip back in April, John "Dinker" Werwie and I had made plans to hit Wickiup for part of a week in May.

I couldn't believe that I was finally heading to LBC for the first time this year. More than three weeks after the Metolius Arm opening, I was just now getting out. Part of the problem is that larger bulls or even legal fish (24 in.) have been on the decline for the past couple of years... read
