Land Tuna,

My friend and I were on the Ronde on January 30th. We fished above Cottonwood Hatchery. We landed 7 fish in about 2 hours and that was it for the day. The water had previously come up and was just starting to level out and even drop a little that day. Very cold out. Should be lots of fish down on the lower end either starting to come up or waiting to come up. Cottonwood Hatchery fish usually start heading up river in late January or early february. Like the gentlemen mentioned before, give Boggan's a call. They are great people and should get you up to date info on the river. Best of luck.

Bene
