Daily Report

Sunday was another beautiful fall day with warm, dry and sunny conditions and the temperature reached into the mid 60's in the afternoon. The last week in October is generally considered our transition period where were past the peak of salmon, but before the peak of steelhead, providing anglers with a mixed bag depending on what section of river your fishing.  At this point the majority of anglers have switched over to steelhead mode but you still have some anglers looking for salmon. If your focused on salmon the mid to upper end of the river would be your best bet. We do have steelhead scattered throughout the river from top to bottom, but the lower end of the river has produced the best action on a daily basis over the last several days. This week looks like another nice week of weather for anglers to get out and take advantage of the conditions. The open motel dates have been posted on the motel page of the website. If you don't see the dates your looking for, it's always best to call and check to see if something just recently became available.
