I've received reports that the steelhead fishing on drano has been very good using spinners.I was wondering if any of you folks could verify this rumor I usually dont do any good until the middle to end of august, so I was a bit surprised at hearing this! I did see the dam counts have gone up quite a bit lately Thanks !!!!

I can't help with DRANO, as for the WHITE SALMON I fished it last thur.s nite to no avail, their were about a doz. boats out. I only heard of a couple caught.
The main reason i went down so early was to take my boat down to get a parking spot.

Definately too early, as you have noticed the counts are on the way up, very good numbers, they should only get better.

Water temp. at Bonniville is 67 deg.s some say warmer water = better fishing a couple more deg.s and we will see.

I agree with you mid august is when it starts getting good.
I've been fishing their for many years and i suspect we will have a good season.

keep um sharp and in the water
GOOD LUCK

I agree that it's too early for spinners at Drano. I was there this weekend and no spinners were being used. Mostly died shrimp. Not very many fish were caught. The Duck

I have a couple more weeks on the Cow, then you'll see me trollin spinners off downriggers @ Drano
