No reports. The few anglers fishing the river are finding steelhead are scattered throughout. There is very limited bank access, so anglers with drift boats tend to do the best. Anglers can check the river gage height at Elk River Hatchery by calling 541-332-0405. The river fishes the best at 5 feet and dropping.
