Hello Fishermen, This last storm did melt some snow from above and raise the Rivers, The good news is that after tonights rain fall ,we will be into four days or more of sunny weather. That should give the Rivers a chance to drop and put us on even more Fish then we have been catching during the high water. Dont let the high water fool ya, the Steelhead return this year is a possible record return with still many weeks to . 194 male Steelhead and 261 females counted at the Rowdy Creek Hatchery fish trap, as of Monday. Your Fishing tip.
