Daily Report

November 16 2024

On Friday we had mostly sunny conditions with the temperature reaching near 50 degrees. We got mixed reports from anglers depending on what section of river they fished. The fishing pressure increased which is normal for this time of year especially as we head into the weekend. The upper and lower end of the river 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. With the low water conditions the fish have been holding in and around the deeper holes and larger runs. 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.
