NORTH FORK NEHALEM RIVER: Winter steelhead

The North Fork Nehalem is in prime condition today and will continue to drop throughout the week. Fishing should be good. A portion of the hatchery steelhead on the North Fork are from wild broodstock, and we saw several in good condition moving through the river today. They should continue to do so through the end of March and into early April.
