HELP is the keyword here and we need help from the rain gods(give us a break)the satsop is raging and unfishable at this time.all the creeks are pumping mud and it's still raining.as far as launch sites there is no fishing above the schafer state park.you can put in at the park itself,their are a few tight spots to drift through so be careful.downriver 4 miles is another launch site at kellys bar(donation bar)he has a donation box and it would be advised to put in a few bucks,he has talked of closing it because of litter problems after the last snagfest. if it were my bar i would close it for sure.anyway from their down it is smooth sailing.if it quits raining it should be fishable in about a week so save your gas and look for another river. smile good luck fishing.scott
