The Mad has been the place to be for winter steelhead. The river isn’t plugged with fish, but there are some really nice fish being caught each day. Following rain on Wednesday night, the river is predicted to blowout on Thursday. Will likely be off color through the weekend. Muddy conditions haven’t slowed the angling pressure.
