    PGP Action Short Film #10 Alosa Sapidissima (16:30)
    A closer look at the American Shad, transplanted to the West coast in 1871 by Seth Green at the request of California fisheries commissioner Spencer Baird. The largest member of the herring family the shad provides fast action for anglers of all ages in the Columbia River basin. The film also covers the feel of a warm spring days fishing on the Columbia River, always a great experience! Alosa Sapidissima is also available on our YOUTUBE page in 2 parts for easy viewing. Enjoy!
    PGP Action Short Film #9 Astoria C&R Gator's (24:00)
    Absolute bonkers catch & release sturgeon fishing in Astoria Oregon with my family and Kevin Newells family. If double and triple hookups for hours were not enough the day would top out with 7 and 10 foot fish released! I was very impressed with Kevin and Lacy's knowledge of not only the fishing but the fishing industry itself. When Kevin is not guiding he is hard at work for NSIA. Lots of firsts for the Lady’s on board this day, well all I can say is "Holy Friggin Barrel!" Our first film release of the New Year!!! Enjoy!
    PGP Action Short Film #8. Blood in the Boat (20:00)
    You will not want to miss this one! Friend and pro guide David Johnson takes a day off and asks me to join him and Andy "Coho" Schneider for a day fishing drift of boat style for spring chinook. I had been waiting for an opportunity to teach back bouncing and plug methods and on this day we would get both. David and Andy are always such a pleasure to fish with and to be able to share the learning from our day with everyone is an even greater bonus! Even if you have your methods down I urge you to take a look at this short film, you will not be disappointed. Plenty of chromer nooker action with loads of methods and tips all in one 20 minute package.
    PGP Action Short Film #7 Claws In The Sand (17:21)
    Collect and transport Sand shrimp or Ghost shrimp for use as bait with shrimping guns. A showcase of coastal wildlife and music by acoustic artists Andy McKee. A very enjoyable family oriented film. Nothing I love more then a day at the beach with my family and friends! Freeze fresh caught shrimp the night you get them you will have fishable tails. You can always add shrimp scent oil to them after they thaw out. For long term storage cover in Borax to avoid freezer burn.
    PGP Action Short #6 Wilson River Steelhead (18:20)
    The Wilson river yields 4 beautiful February steelhead for Mike Braun and I as we work through the upper river with jig & bobber. Mike employs special drift fishing tactics for the day you just might want to check out. Along with 2 chrome natives a very nice 36 inch broodstock metalhead is caught and released on a steelhead jig MC style. I could hardly contain myself waiting to release this film to our viewers and finaly here it is. ENJOY!!!
    PGP Action Short #5 Coastal Fall Chinook (19:19)
    Late in 2006 I had the pleasure of a raft trip with Mark Anderson [Owner of First Bite Jigs] on the Oregon coast for fall chinook. Rains had left the coastal rivers high for weeks and as they began to fall into the "perfect green" we would hook several nice fish on a variety of bait and tackle. Mark shows us an awsome hen caught and released on a pink salmon jig fished under a float. A very memorable day and a beautiful short film that was a pleasure to experiance and to produce.
    PGP Action Short #4 Wild Coastal Salmon (20:05)
    Reel burning, gut busting monster wild coastal Coho steal the show in this one. On a day when the primary target was Chinook that had been thick the week before, the incidental Coho prove themselves to be on the move and simply to thick too avoid without going home. I take one of the largest Coho I have ever caught, he’s a beauty! It is always amazing to me how much harder the wild fish fight. This has been a great year for big fish and this film is the proof of that.
