    My family and I spent some amazing time at the Umpqua River State Park. The ruby light was so beautiful. We managed to catch 10 nice crabs, some trout in a fresh water lake in the park, we topped it off with steak! I am 63, it’s on my must go back list! Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    Just watched the video loved it seeing the swing bridge reminds me of my teenage years we lived on a farm located on the confluence of the Chehalais river and the Wynoochie Rivers there was a old abandoned swing bridge. We floated to the bridge climbed up to bridge house and discovered a treasure trove of railroad artifact's also discovered that the bridge control's still worked we found that if you did not engage the rail lock the bridge would swing in a full circle . Needless to say when we left to get back to shore we left it running it was over 24 hrs the bridge went around and around untill somebody got it stopped was only a year or 2 when the bridge was takin down. Good thing there is the statue of limitations

    Hi Dustin...I watch your channel all the time and love to see the abandon places you go. I am in Oregon and like seeing Oregon from someone else's eyes. In the last part of your video, you are at the Siuslaw river in Florence. We fish that river for Chinook salmon in the Spring and Fall. You just missed the Fall salmon run. We live in the Eugene/Springfield area, so we are only an hour away from the coast. My husband loves fishing in the bays all along the Oregon coast.

    I was just in almost all of those places last month. Interesting seeing the same places through another's eyes. The building on the Siuslaw is almost certainly an old sawmill. Logs would be floated down river and milled there and then the finished timber would go out either by truck or barge. From the historic overheads it looks like it was in operation until at least 1994.
    If you come back through Bellingham drop me a line and I'll buy you lunch and show you some cool spots.

    As you go south on 101 you will soon get to one of my childhood homes Crescent City California. When you get there, drive a few miles inland on hwy 199. There you will find an incredible dry campground called Jedidiah Smith. Trees like you have never seen. Quiet camping. I have relatives there who can give you a hand if you need anything. Crabbing off the docks should be good for crabs as well.

    First off, there is no local Police force in Depot Bay, so it's only the Sherriff that patrols that area, and during the off-season like this, nobody is gonna look twice at your rig parked there.
    But during the summer busy season, that's another story!! It gets packed with tourists!!
    Then they get much tighter about patrolling these parts, as parking becomes a premium.
    The old mill site you stopped at just outside Florence is a local landmark, but it's been vacant for so many years that no one pays any attention to it anymore.
    1 hour south is Coos Bay, which is where I call home.
    Nice relaxing video. Enjoy your travels

    Been to Depot Bay many times. And yes, it is kind of special, it has the smallest working harbor in the world, if I am not mistaken. I've been on that crabbing pier, and yes the tide is crazy some times. Also Mo's is one of the best for Clam Chowder. I love the Oregon Coast. And Newport Oregon, yep, love that place. I even donated money to help work on the bridge, many many MANY years ago. So much to see and do in Newport. And yet, very few UA-camrs ever stay there very long. That float with the tag, that was marking a set crab pot. The tag let people know who it belonged too.

    Using chicken is ok for crab pots, especially if you can get cheap chicken. If you catch a fish, put the offal in the pot. BUT stay stocked up on tuna fish, make sure it's the "packed in oil" type. Poke 5 or 6 holes in the top of the can, put the can in the crab pot. It works great.
