Charter Fishing in Brookings, OR

We did a half-day fishing trip off the coast in Brookings, OR. Caught lots of rock fish, sea bass, and this huge lin cod. The boat only caught two of these beast, and I got one!!!
This one weighted 15-18 pounds.

We have so much fish in the freezer, we need visitors to share it with!!

New Friend

This is our friend who was trying to rob our crab nets, along with about a million sea gulls! The sea gulls gave Brandon a nice little surprise as they flew over our heads. We were in Brookings, Oregon.

FIRST VISITOR!!

Brandon's mom came to visit us for a few days! She was our first visitor and we had a blast. This is a picture of the Natural Bridge on the way to Crater Lake.

Tokeete Falls

This is where we camped! From Medford to this campsite, it took about 1.5 hours, and we probably passed a dozen waterfalls. It's amazing!! If you look close it has three waterfalls inside, and it comes from a cave.

We decided to go waterfall hunting

We woke up yesterday and decided to go waterfall hunting and camping. So we got into the car and drove. We saw a bunch of amazing waterfalls. Here is a picture of Barr Falls, it also had a great lake and cool campground.

Crab Fishing

Mandy and I sat on the boat dock, drank beer and crab fished. Life is good!!! We rented the nets and bait, and caught over 150 crab. But because of restrictions, we only could eat just one. We could only keep 2 kinds, but only males. We still ate the sucka!!

Coos Bay

We went to Coos Bay for a few days of camping. Coos Bay is located in the middle of Oregon on the coast. Mandy and I hiked around the coast line and had a blast. Saw a ton of wildlife( seals, eagles).

The Oregon coast is something else. The ocean is clear, and the rocks are huge. We hiked through the tide pools in Sunset Bay, when the tide was low. Pretty cool to see all the sea life!

Miss ya all

Fish Hatchery

We took a day trip up the Rogue river to visit the fish hatchery. This is a picture of Mandy and I feeding some huge rainbow trout. Some of the fish were up to 10 pounds. If it wasn't for the fencing, you would have seen some different pictures. HAHA

NOW this picture has a great story!! Mandy caught this fish in the Snake river. The river that feeds Jaskson Lake, in the Tetons National Park. After taking the hook out of its guts, and took this picture, the fish didn't make it. As she pulled this in, I noticed a huge bald eagly swoop into the tree just next to us. So since we killed this fish, we fiqured send this fish down the river, and maybe the eagle will come and grab it. Well with in seconds the eagle swooped out of the tree and grabbed the fish. The proceeded to sit on the shore right next to us, and eat his lunch. Pretty cool!!! Check out some of the eagle pics

Hi Everyone!

We are beginning our adventure and we just wanted you all to be a part of it! As you probably already know I have taken a traveling nursing position in Medford, OR. We plan to do traveling nursing while Brandon gets his masters degree all in a year! These are the pictures and the story of events! Enjoy because we sure are!
