Recent high water has slowed the bull trout fishing a bit, as the pink salmon smolt were swept downstream. Smaller baitfish patterns have been replaced with standard steelhead patterns. Larger black and blue, and black and orange patterns have been working the best. Fish in the 3-4 pound range have been typical. We choose to fly fish for these fish and had some great success. Fly fishing washington is just getting going for the year, but look for this river to close early (feb 16th). The low numbers of returning winter steelhead prompted this closure. Good Luck!
