“Salmon fishing was slow on the Chetco early this week, despite good flows,” said Andy Martin of Wild Rivers Fishing. “Big numbers of fish have now spawned. The Elk and Sixes were also slow, after good fishing a week ago. Half-pounder steelhead are being caught on the Chetco. Steelhead season opens Dec. 1. The Chetco above Nook Creek also opens Dec. 1, but salmon fishing remains closed.”
