What does the river look like?
Any word at all?????

Sunday evenning it was very very high... Im sure it is alot worse now!

Just about anything down this way is gone, gone and then more gone.....Wishkah, Humptupils, Wynoochee, Satsop and the Chehalis.......brown color....lot's of logs, trees, etc. on the move. Any rains at all are just going to add to the problems..............remember all the "no rain days this summer".......we need 6+ days like those..........

"Worse day sports fishing, still better than the best day working".........

Think about fishing the GH rivers about the first week of November or later. The bad thing is that while the rivers are receding a bit, areas that are not traditionally flooded are holding huge amounts of water. These areas are served by small drainage ditches, so the runoff will continue for weeks, not days. All are way out. The Satsop HWY 12 parking lot was under water this morning. Tonight is was full of mud and silt.

Here is a look at the current levels.

CHEHALIS RIVER AT PORTER, WA 11,000

CHEHALIS RIVER NEAR SATSOP, WA 19,500

WYNOOCHEE RIVER NEAR GRISDALE, WA 3,540
WYNOOCHEE RIVER ABOVE SAVE CREEK NEAR ABERDEEN, WA 5,180

Olympic Peninsula River Basins
HUMPTULIPS RIVER BELOW HWY 101 NR HUMPTULIPS, WA 5,840

See you in mid November.

Late Wednesday it was high but fishable.
Talk about barbs, snagging, kicking fish, fishing illegal waters, and keeping fish hooked from the anus.

Bird.

Ah, but the high water keeps the nets out...

Thanks for the info..........
I'll stay home

Anyone try today, or its it still a ways away? I have a chance to fish here and Olypen area M-W this week for the first time, but maybe better wait til next year?
