We often wish it was like
the good old days. Life was
much easier. It was easy to
pick what shows to watch on
TV because there were only
four black and white stations.

and dial it seven
times with the
proper numbers
equaling the person’s phone
number. If you had a party line
you had to count the rings to
know if a call was for your
house. One ring was for your
neighbor, two was your house
and three was some old guy
down the road. If you picked
up the phone you could hear
someone else’s conversation if
they were using their phone.
Very complicated, and the
phone didn’t move.
We had anxieties as well.
Almost all children at some-
time got the measles, chicken
pox and the mumps. It was a
right of passage... we all had
to learn to duck and cover in
case the Russians nuked us.
That was a lie because if you
ducked and covered the only
outcome was your rear end
would just be vaporized fi rst.
So what was
so good about
the good old
days? The hunt-
ing and fi shing.
Most hunters
got their deer in
the fall. Pheas-
ants
were
abundant in
the Keiz-
er area and
were a popu-
lar game bird.
The fi sh-
ing was great.
All the small
creeks were
full of cutthroat
and most of the rivers had
abundant salmon and steel-
head runs. There were many
hatcheries and they stocked
most of the streams with
smolts to enhance the runs.
We would go to a coast-
al river in the fall and often
catch our limit of Chinook
or Coho salmon. It was not
unusual to catch Chinook
weighing 40-50 pounds.
Now one of 30 pounds is
considered large.
Steelhead were in almost
every creek and stream. We
used to catch them in Abaqua
Creek, Thomas Creek and
lots of them in the Santiam
River, but for the best steel-
head fi shing, we went to the
coast.
I spent most my time chas-
ing winter steelhead on the
Nestucca River where we
could sometimes hook a doz-
en in a day drifting the riv-
er. You could also be at the
Deschutes River for summer
steelhead fl y fi shing where a
morning or an evening could
result to a to 10 hook ups.
Todays generation of fi sh-
ermen have no idea how
good the fi shing used to be.
Most are satisfi ed with catch-
ing one fi sh for every two or
three days fi shing. With the
wild fi sh policy now in place,
runs are dwindling to a rem-
nant of what they once were.
Hatcheries are being closed
and fewer and fewer fi sh are
being planted.
A coalition has been started
to try and get more hatchery
fi sh again. The science shows
hatchery and wild fi sh can
co-exist if hatchery practices
are done correctly.
So until we get rid of the
current wild fi sh policy, I’ll
just dream about the good old
days and be thankful I got to
experience them. I will get
my fl u shot, lay on the couch
and channel surf and look
up stuff on my smart phone.
Maybe that will hold me till
we get back to the good old
days again.
