Winter steelhead are still moving throughout the basin. Low water conditions have slowed fish movement, but there are still fish around! The bank access in the upper gorge offers a unique and often remote fishing experience. Fishing the gorge can be a great option later in the season as fish push higher into the system.
A landslide on HWY 229 has resulted in a road closure at approximately milepost 14.5. HWY 229 will be closed for the unforeseeable future until crews are able to safely remove the debris from the roadway.
As a general reminder for Anglers: Help to protect boating opportunities by maximizing distance from bank anglers and other boats. Safely row or motor around anglers and other boats and avoid motoring nearshore and in shallow areas.
