I've been hitting the area around longview and Kalama,the last few weeks.Its been pretty slow for me and everybody else I've talked to.I the fish are there.Its just that there is so much bait in the water right now they dont have to look far for a meal.One shaker I got the other day was so full of smelt its stomach was all distorted and looked like it was ready to pop.If you get lucky or hit the right spot at the right time you might get into some good fishing.It might be worth waiting a couple weeks for the smelt to thin out some though.If you do go.Let me know how you did.
