Fished on the 25th. Started at the deadline at dawn. It was quiet. Moved to the last drift in that upper stretch and spotted fish there. Caught two smallish, colored-up native steelhead bucks (I may have caught the same fish twice!). Since they were occupying the drift, I take it there were no salmon in that rather shallow spot.

The red barn hole was full of recent hatchery releases. No use fishing bait in that hole that day.

Caught one bright, smallish native hen below the red barn. Again no sign of salmon.

At Prichard"s, however, there were a number of boats in the parking lot and I saw one salmon being loaded up and heard talk of others. Sure wish I knew how to fish effectively for them from the bank!

River is in great shape color and clarity- wise. Level still covers the rock out in front of Prichard's.

Good luck!! And haul some trash off the river-bank while you're at it!
