The river is starting to clear and drop which will make for a little tougher fishing conditions. Anglers will want to check the weather and river height before fishing. This is a heavily fished river so anglers will want to be patient and plan on sharing some of the best fishing holes. Anglers are reminded that all wild Chinook must be released.
