The North Fork Nehalem was slow most of the last week, but there was a good bite reported at the hatchery this morning. Hopefully this is a sign that fish are starting to move and fishing will improve this week. The North Fork should be fishable all week and may be prime for the weekend.

In addition to the early returning hatchery stock, we recently transitioned a portion of the hatchery winter steelhead in the North Fork to wild broodstock hatchery fish (hatchery fish from wild parents); these fish should be coming back now and will be available in the fishery through early April.
