Hunt, Fish, Explore Oregon

ODFW’s award winning podcast recently celebrated its 100th episode. If you haven’t tuned in, you’re missing some great stories ranging from choosing a hunting/fishing partner, to high lakes fishing, to hunting band-tailed pigeons.

If you’re heading to the back country for a little time away, why not take a fishing rod with you? ODFW stocks trout in dozens of hike-in only lakes throughout the state.

When it comes to strength, fight and acrobatics, smallmouth bass are considered top tier. And they’re easy to find in nearby ponds, reservoirs and rivers. Check the Recreation Report for locations near you.
