Methow Steelheading Report

With the Methow reopening for steelhead this past week we had a number of customers that elected to head over to the East side and see what the river had to offer. Everyone that we spoke with had reasonable fishing with number of a half dozen to a dozen fish landed per day. These are by no means dollar bright fish and are a little on the thin side and showing lots of color, but it at least gives one an opportunity to wet a line. Most were fishing floats and jig combinations with many fishing a smaller jig or bead on a dropper around 18 inches below their main offering. This fishery should produce well until the close at the end of the month.
