Skykomish River - Steelhead

Can't say that we have been getting any fantastic reports coming out of the Skykomish for some time.  Even the Reiter Ponds section of the river has been slow for this time of year.  On the best days we have been hearing of around ten fish for the whole area with six to eight being more the norm.  With the colder weather and the low snow level the river has dropped to a level that makes fishing tough.  Though we have not heard much out of the lower river perhaps it would be the place to fish until the river level comes back up. What fish that are in the river are pooling up somewhere.
