Most Oregon anglers won't leave home without this book, and most long-time Oregon anglers eagerly anticipate a new edition every five years, including the thoroughly updated "FIO9". Running 80 pages thicker, the new edtion reflects significant changes in Oregon fishing regulations, updates information about public access to lakes and streams, describes waters newly open to public access, and includes guidance on how to use river level readings (now available on the Web) to choose your fishing destination. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, August 26, 1999

This review is from: Fishing in Oregon (Paperback)

It there is a body of water in Oregon with fish in it, its listed in this book. From salmon to largemouth bass, Fishing in Oregon will put you on 'em. My only complaint is with some of the directions to the locations. Unless you're fairly familiar with the area mentioned it can get a bit tricky. Though a good Oregon map pretty much makes up for any difficulty. If you live in Oregon and you fish, this book is a must.

5.0 out of 5 stars MUST HAVE., December 4, 2001

This review is from: Fishing in Oregon, Ninth Edition (Paperback)

If you fish or plan to fish in Oregon, you need this book. It has all the information that you could possibly need to get to, and successfully fish almost any public and many private bodies of water.

I would also recommend that you carry a copy of the State fishing regs. Some of the things the author says about open season and where you can fish on some river systems has changed.

All in all, this is the second best investment I have made in my fishing hobby. (The first being my license.)

This review is from: Fishing in Oregon, Ninth Edition (Paperback)

My old edition on Fishing in Oregon was long since falling apart and I was waiting on pins and needles for the new version. I was not dissappointed!

Fishing in Oregon Ninth Edition is even more comprehensive than it's predesessors. The maps are awesome, and the directions are clear and easy to follow.

If you love to fish, this book is THE invaluable resource for all of Oregon!
