During my vacation travels to Oregon, we stopped at the Rogue River at the southern edge of Grants Pass, Oregon. I discovered a new fishing tackle store, outfitter, raft/kayak and water gun rentals (http://i986.photobucket.com/albums/ae348/hawaiiansurfinboy/AlanTani/Rivers%20Edge%20Outfitters/IMG_4939.jpg) that just opened in February 2011.

Owned and operated by Mark L. Trask and Ryan Shelander. I met Ryan, a really nice, helpful fellow.

As you can see, they are small, but have everything you need for fishing at the near by Rogue River for trout, steelhead, and salmon. Maybe these guys will join us and give us a report once and a while.

Also, while at the boat ramp, walking distance from the shop, a drift boat was coming in with a nice 28# salmon.
