Welcome back !

Thank you, Aaron. It's good to be back on the water.

Very excited for this season, it'll be my first Springer Season on my Kayak and I've learned a ton from your past Willamette videos. Hope to see you out on the river!

[@DavidPyle]

Thank you for watching and good luck on your Kayak. It's a very productive way to fish.

[@RollinwithRiley]

​@DavidPyle I caught my first Willamette springer yesterday using a lot of your tips! Thank you and good luck out there

[@kilinitadventures1083]

it about that time again.....great to hear your doing weekdays too...great stuff David.

[@DavidPyle]

It could shape up to be a good week on the Willamette. Fingers crossed.

[@joeladams4779]

Great to see you. Great video.

[@DavidPyle]

Thank you, Joel. It's time to get out and start practicing. When the fish are here you'll be in a good fishing rhythm. My first, second, and third rules - Practice, Practice, and Practice.

Hi Dave! Appreciate the pre- season fishing tips. It's always helpful when you share leader link, bait, flasher, speed, etc., information and explain reason behind it, as in this video. As a newbie to springer fishing I am curious to learn 'patterns' about which part of the river and 'why' how to target springers early in the season, mid, and late season. Also about the bait/lures and how and why it changed throughout season. I noticed that guides all the time share information about where they've been catching and that's awesome! Is this the real secret to network or there's some actual repeatable patterns? I'm not looking for any secret spots. I've been trying from around Fred's Marina Marina all the way to Willamette Falls with a little bit of luck last season. Thanks Dave! See u on the water!

[@DavidPyle]

I talk for seven hours during my Guided Education trips discussing where to fish during each month, how deep to fish, what bait/lure to use, how fast to troll, how deep and so on. I believe that these trips give fishermen a jump start to successfully fish for salmon. After the trip it will take practice, practice and more practice to develop answers for the questions you're asking. They are very good questions but the answer is much too long for this comment section.

[@Baywolf_films]

Been finishing the spring boat maintenance and going over gear. AND of course, reviewing your videos! Can't wait. Bit of a drive for me, but hopefully I can get down for a few practice runs.

[@DavidPyle]

Tuning up is so very important. It really takes several trips to build a rhythm and once the fish come in you're hitting your stride.

[@swimbait1]

Good luck this year

[@DavidPyle]

Thank you. Hope you have good luck this year too.

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Man, that’s a cool logo. Haha. Excited to see you start posting some takedowns again soon David.

[@DavidPyle]

Yeah, my Logo is pretty cool thanks to you. Hope you're getting your kayak ready for springers.

[@nathancavanaugh8489]

Hey David, just curious as to what cameras your using when filming on the water?? Id like to try and capture some takedown footage to watch in the off season! Look forward to seeing you on the river, gonna be a great season!!

[@DavidPyle]

Nathan, I use GoPro Hero 7 cameras. They are not the newest GoPros by any measure but they film at 4k and they are reliable.
