early season was crap for me, I couldnt catch a cold, then it picked up and got hot. I landed 57 steelhead ths season 22 were hatcherys. The satsop is definatley a better bet in the later months, considering I only caught a handful of fish off of the nooch this year. after all of those fish I caught none broke 20 lbs. couple 17's and one 18.
