The Kalama has been a consistent producer for me so far. Last fished it Feb. 12. Water was low and clear, w/5+ feet of vis. I have a feeling the fish are scattered, however, on the 12th, I happened to find the right place to be, among the runs up in the canyon, closer to the deadline. While searching for the fish, I saw two in a shallow run near shore. I sat down and as I watched, I saw that there were 2 or 3 others in the run also. I fished there all morning and by keeping a low profile (the fish were in about 3 feet of water, less than 8 feet from shore) was able to hit 7 fish, alternating between sandshrimp and a variety of jigs, all under a float. All fish were hatchery, the biggest was a buck of about 8 or 9 pounds. So, the Kalama could be a productive option. Once I found the fish, I found that they weren't especially skittish. Most of the ones I saw could be coaxed into taking, it seemed the key was to switch up fequently.
