Cowlitz River - Blue Creek

The reports that we have been getting from this river have not been overly exciting.  The river has been very high and the fishing has been off and on to say the least.  There definitely are no crowds down there to contend with this year.  An indication that the fishing has not been hot.  Most everyone that we have spoken with says you are really having to work to get any action and a couple fish for a hard days work is a good reward.  On some days the top guides are getting perhaps 6 or 7 fish on for 4 clients and landing 3 or 4, with the next day perhaps getting just a single fish.  Just the way it is!  Make sure that with the high water you are fishing just off the bank as that is where the fish have been in these conditions.
