FISHING REPORT FOR 10/27/2017
Fall weather is finally here, and since it also came with spring like rainfall, steelhead season has really picked up. The water has started to come down and is currently flowing at 4440 CFS with the gage height at 7 1/2 feet. Water temps also experience a decline from...
Fishing Report for October 23,2017
Lots of fish in river now, Salmon, Steelhead and lake run Browns are all hot now, with this rain it will only get better. Most fish are keying on the eggs, both flies and beads.
FISHING REPORT FOR 9/5/2017
Smallmouth fishing continues to produce. Larger streamers, crayfish patterns, goby patterns and poppers (during lower light times of day) can all produce fish. We are starting to see a few salmon scattered around and as the water temps drop we should start to see good pushes of them showing...

FISHING REPORT FOR 4/6/2017
Fishing has continued to be good and hopefully this rain we’ve been getting (rain and snow at once at the moment) will bring in a big push of fresh spring steelhead. The water level is currently at 5350cfs and climbing.
