cougs,
I will hook you up cuz I am a fellow college student. After this big rain the steelies should start showing. The nooch and satsop get later fish so plan accordingly. This rain hopefully will have a last good push of salmon in them. 2 weeks ago I was floating ariver that was coming up for the first time all fall and the salmon were moving like crazy. You probably know some of the rivers that get early brats so hit them. If you want to drive far, forks has salmon and steelies. Good luck and have fun withe grande ronde fish, they are beautiful.
