Reiter Ponds - Steelheading

With the main stem Skykomish river having closed there is just the section from the High Bridge (Big Eddy) to the forks at Index remaining open through the 15Th of February. Though the bulk of the hatchery fish are finished there are a few still to be caught in this section of the river. We had one of the customers in this afternoon that between himself and his son managed to land five in this section of the river. They managed to pick these fish on floats and jigs. Dark red jigs seemed to be the ticket for the action they had. I also had another individual in that also had been doing well on dark red jigs this past week. With the outstanding weather that we will have this weekend it would be a "Great" day to be on the water.
