Anyone from oregon?

[snagmaster]

I am from salem oregon and i fish the willamette river mostly the slough during spawn i was catching alot of small mouth in the shallows it was great but since then am having a hard time catching anything over a pound it is my first year fishing for bas and i ussualy only use rubber worms and crayfish im not real sure on how to use much anything else i was wondering if they might be in the deep i know they go to the current for a while its just very frustrating thnx
