Recent river flows have been on the rise and visibility is currently poor. Check gages before heading out. We should see a drop in river levels this week, which should improve steelhead fishing conditions.

Fish are making their way upriver, allowing for good opportunities higher in the system and in the lower North Fork reaches.
