NORTH COAST RIVERS
North Coast streams and rivers are regulated by low flow closures. Always call ahead to determine the condition of the river you want to fish. If not mentioned, the river is closed or no reports. The DFG’s Low Flow Closure Hotline for north coast rivers is 707) 822-3164. For the Russian River and counties of Mendocino, Sonoma and Marin, call (707) 944-5533. South Central Coast streams number is (831) 649-2886. Many streams closed, and others change to artificial/barbless only on March 31 and others on April 25.
ROGUE RIVER, Lower, Gold Beach, Ore.- During the beginning of the week, the Rogue estuary was straight up good fishing for Chinooks, said guide and WON Field Reporter Curtis Palmer of River Secrets Guide Service. Several salmon of the days catch would be well into the 30-pound range. “Then, Wednesday and Thursday turned out to be two of the slowest days we had seen in a month of fishing the bay, but if a boat put in enough time on the water and really paid attention to every detail, they would of most likely had a opportunity to put a king salmon in the fish box,” Palmer said.
RUSSIAN RIVER-Summer mode, with some smallmouth bass fishing early and late, before and after the rafters and kayakers hit the river and get it stirred up.
UMPQUA RIVER, North Fork, Glide, Ore.–Fishing for steelhead and salmon slowed down drastically this last week. “The few pictures that have been shared with me are of old. dark Chinooks,” said Field Reporter Curtis Palmer.” That had no appeal to me for sport as an angler, and certainly not as table fare. One day rafting trips are a great way to spend time on this river now.”
UMPQUA RIVER, Main Stem, Reedsport, Oregon–Chinook fishing has been very good on some days and downright discouraging on other days. Without any apparent reason, the catching of these excellent salmon will come to a complete halt. The good news is that there is over a month left to get involved in some great days of fishing for kings.
TRINITY-KLAMATH RIVERS
KLAMATH RIVER, Iron Gate-Air and water temperatures have really heated up, and trout fishing is pretty much ended until fall when salmon and steelhead return to the upper stretches of the river.
KLAMATH RIVER, Klamath Glen-What a difference a week makes. Guide Steve Huber struck the mother lode of newly-arrived salmon and steelhead, and had it almost to himself by putting 6 salmon and 4 steelhead into the boat by 8:30 a.m. on Friday! There were lots of fish spread throughout the river, but fishing was best around Blue Creek. Side-drifting and boondoggling roe were the most effective methods for taking fish.
TRINITY RIVER, Junction City-Salmon fishing started out pretty good at the beginning of last week, but tapered off and became tougher and tougher as the week wore on, until anglers were happy to score one or two salmon in a hard day’s fishing. Back bouncing roe into faster riffles was producing an occasional salmon, but success rates were better for anglers anchoring up in a “honey hole” and camping out.

Unchained Ambitions, Mankind Must Fall - A little Poem I penned?
Aug 01, 2007 by Angelo A | Posted in Poetry
Unchained Ambitions
burden me with societies insecurities
I need to break the restraints
that keep me shackled to individuality
Unbridled Fury
loosen the grip sanity holds on me
I need to break the restraints
that keep me from going on a killing spree
Modern Society
is a reflection of unholy sanctity
I need to break those restraints
let me loose on this flock
undeserving as it may be
My thirst for blood is peaking
as they are weakening
nothing can resists the Devils own embrace
one Hundred Million souls
will not quench my thirst but for an hour
Let the Succubus loose
that I may see the rivers of blood
let these unchained evil beasts
take dominion over this world
Unclean Souls
break the restraints that hold me down
let loose this mangled flesh
that I may yet rip into their bodies
and drink the marrow from their bones
One Thousand years
have I been shackled and restrained
now it is my time to reign
son of Man, king of beasts
I will rule thls world
Mountains of dead rotting flesh
this I must have to be reborn
break the restraints
that I may have my feast
its kind of sad. but very visual. and VERY long. thats okay. i don't wanna sound mean or nuthin, but if ur publishing this its wonderful as it is! but for stuff like this break it down into smaller parts or something. you'll get more feedback, and many more comliments! t sounds like a unique and intrguing sitch-eee-ashion for a story about the dark side of humanity.

I wish you'd punctuated.
I know it shouldn't have but "I need to break the restraints
that keep me from going on a killing spree" made me giggle.

I read this poem three or four times, I think I got the same tune you had while writing this poem. You get real dark real soon. The transformation came fast and Satan came to mind at the end of the poem. 100/100

Valid reasons to trust the Bible?
Jul 18, 2010 by Shakim H | Posted in Religion & Spirituality
Free of unscientific views. Many mistaken beliefs gained wide acceptance in ancient times. Views about the earth ranged from the idea that it was flat to the notion that tangible substances or objects held it aloft. Long before science learned about the spread and prevention of disease, physicians employed some practices that were ineffective at best, lethal at worst. But not once in its more than 1,100 chapters does the Bible endorse any unscientific views or harmful practices.
Planet Earth
Far ahead of its time, the Bible correctly stated that the earth is circular and hangs “upon nothing”
Scientifically sound statements. Some 3,500 years ago, the Bible stated that the earth is hanging “upon nothing.” (Job 26:7) In the eighth century B.C.E., Isaiah clearly referred to “the circle [or, sphere] of the earth.” (Isaiah 40:22) A spherical earth held in empty space without any visible or physical means of support—does not that description sound remarkably modern?
Written about 1500 B.C.E., the Mosaic Law (found in the first five books of the Bible) contained sound laws regarding quarantining of the sick, treatment of dead bodies, and disposal of waste.—Leviticus 13:1-5; Numbers 19:1-13; Deuteronomy 23:13, 14.
Partly as a result of turning powerful telescopes toward the heavens, scientists have concluded that the universe had a sudden “birth.” Not all scientists like the implications of this explanation. One professor noted: “A universe that began seems to demand a first cause; for who could imagine such an effect without a sufficient cause?” Yet, long before telescopes, the very first verse of the Bible plainly stated: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”—Genesis 1:1.
Even though it is an ancient book and touches on many subjects, the Bible contains no scientific inaccuracies. Does not such a book merit, at the very least, our consideration?^
^ For more examples of the Bible’s scientific accuracy, see pages 18-21 of the brochure A Book for All People, published by Jehovah’s Witnesses.
5. Fulfilled Prophecy
Imagine a weather forecaster who has a long record of being right—every time. If he predicted rain, would you carry an umbrella?
THE Bible is filled with predictions, or prophecies.** Its record, as documented by history, is clear. Bible prophecy is always right.
Distinguishing features. Bible prophecies are often specific and have been fulfilled down to the smallest of details. They usually involve matters of great importance and predict the opposite of what those living at the time of the writing might have been expecting.
The Bible accurately foretold that a leader named Cyrus would conquer mighty Babylon
King Cyrus and the city of Babylon being invaded
An outstanding example. Strategically built astride the Euphrates River, ancient Babylon has been called “the political, religious, and cultural centre of the ancient Orient.” About 732 B.C.E., the prophet Isaiah penned an ominous prophecy—Babylon would fall. Isaiah provided specifics: A leader named “Cyrus” would be the conqueror, the protective waters of the Euphrates would “dry up,” and the city’s gates would “not be shut.” (Isaiah 44:27–45:3) Some 200 years later, on October 5, 539 B.C.E., the prophecy was fulfilled in all its details. Greek historian Herodotus (fifth century B.C.E.) confirmed the manner of Babylon’s fall.##
A bold detail. Isaiah made a further startling prediction regarding Babylon: “She will never be inhabited.” (Isaiah 13:19, 20) To predict permanent desolation for a sprawling city occupying a strategic location was bold indeed. You would normally expect that such a city would be rebuilt if ruined. Although Babylon lingered on for a while after its conquest, Isaiah’s words eventually came true. Today the site of ancient Babylon “is flat, hot, deserted and dusty,” reports Smithsonian magazine.
It is awesome to contemplate the magnitude of Isaiah’s prophecy. What he foretold would be the equivalent of predicting the exact manner in which a modern city, such as New York or London, would be destroyed 200 years from now and then emphatically stating that it would never again be inhabited. Of course, most remarkable is the fact that Isaiah’s prophecy came true
Wow there's a lot of know-it-alls on here who actually know nothing, for instance Mr Creation Crusher 3000 must be feeling very proud of him self with his magnificent answer, but to someone who has actually read the bible and has at least some very basic knowledge of the Hebrew language it really isn't magnificent at all, you see the Hebrew word translated "day" has a variety of meanings, including ‘a long time; the time covering an extraordinary event.’ (Old Testament Word Studies, Grand Rapids, Mich.; 1978, W. Wilson, p. 109) The term used allows for the thought that each "day" could have been thousands of years in length. As for the so called "scientific community" he implies that scientists are all in agreement and united when nothing can be further from the truth, in fact there are an ever increasing number of scientists who are now considering creational theory's, For example, mathematician William A. Dembski wrote that the "intelligent design" evident in "observable features of the natural world . . . can be adequately explained only by recourse to intelligent causes." Molecular biochemist Michael Behe sums up the evidence this way: "You can be a good Catholic and believe in Darwinism. Biochemistry has made it increasingly difficult, however, to be a thoughtful scientist and believe in it.
Come on you clever and wise [in your own eyes] atheists do your own research before posting an answer after all you only sound clever to people as clever as yourself. [Mathew 15: 14]
