Daily Report

November 10 2024

On Saturday we had mostly sunny conditions with the temperature reaching near 50 degrees. No surprise we had increased fishing pressure especially with it being a holiday weekend. The upper end of the river in Altmar and the lower end of the river between Town Pool and the DSR is getting the most fishing pressure on a daily basis. If your willing to walk and looking to avoid other anglers, the mid section of river would be a good choice. Yesterday the majority of anglers we spoke with who fished the DSR reported having a good day while getting into mostly steelhead. For those anglers who are fly fishing, dead drifitng with egg patterns, indicator fishing with egg patterns or swinging streamers with sink tips have all produced results. For those anglers who are bottom bouncing or float fishing, egg sacs and beads have produced the best reults. Anglers stopping into the shop who fished the mid to upper end of the river reported getting into a few steelhead as well. Depending on the day anglers have been getting into fish in the Upper & Lower Fly Fishing Zones, Ellis Cove, Trestle Pool area, Sportsman Pool area, Staircase/Longbridge, Black Hole and the DSR.

Current Shop hours: Monday - Thursday 7:00AM - 6:30PM. Friday & Saturday 7:00AM - 7:00PM. Sunday 7:00AM - 6:00PM.

Suggested patterns:

Eggs: estaz eggs, steelie omelet, glo-bugs, sucker spawn.

Streamers: Egg sucking leeches, flesh flies, woolly buggers.

Nymphs: Steelhead hammer, beadhead stones, rubber legged stones.
