Usually Dec. Jan. are the best for Hatchery steelhead on the salmon River. However, with all the rain the hatchery timing will be sooner, like it was last year. Also the Queets tribal fishery has only been 1 day a week for about a month now. That means the early fish will won't be hit by the nets. Should be a real good season. You can contact Letty at potter@olynet.com good luck.
