Bot attack.

Well it seems as though a "Bot" has decided to attack my site. I don't know what that is exactly, but I think we are good now. The spam should stop, but we can only cross our fingers for now. See ya soon. I am starting to fish at the beginning of the week. I feel sorry for those fish.

Now a married man!!

Well my trip to Vegas went very well, and the wedding was a great success. To all those that took the time to watch, I thank you so much. To those that sent gifts, ("Paul Zimmerman, Ron @ Holly"), Amanda and I really, really thank you so much. I will be back to fishing in about a week, and I expect the pics to come rapidly. I am ready to get back out there and get into some Steel. I will be in Mexico soon, fishing for rooster fish, and many other varieties, that I have no idea about. Hope it is a great time. Just wanted to let anyone know that cares, what I am up to, and that the site will be kicking off real good, in a few days. To see a full album of pictures, go to my facebook, search ("Aaron Shook"), become a friend, and then check out the pics. Also a good way to see what's up with the fishing. See ya then.

The big day for me!!!

Well I know this is not fishing, but I have to let my readers know. I am getting married on Saturday the 14th of Nov. If any of you want to watch the event live, or within 24 hours after, then you will need to goto www.littlechapel.com and click on guests, then Aaron and Amanda Shook. Hope you all can watch if you want to. Here is a pic of a nice Steelhead from the season. This fish was 44" long and had a 22" girth. Weight about 27 Lbs.

Thanks for the pics

Well I have been from the Oregon coast, all the way to the mountain streams, but still no bright fish to be had.  My buddy Steve caught a nice summer Steelhead on Eagle Creek, Saturday. Did get some dark fish, and I will get those pics out in the next day or two.

Sunday was a bust at the coast, with only one chum caught between the two of us.

All the Silvers in Eagle Creek are dark. I did get one, that did not look horrible.

This post is to thank all of you that sent pics to me over the last year.

These pics feature, Kings from Eagle Creek, Steelhead from the Wilson River (Oregon Coast), Steelhead from New York, and also a few Steelhead from the Washougal (Washington).

Enjoy the pics you have all sent me, by the way, maybe next year you all can send more pics.

Thanks again
