Coastal Winter Steelhead Starting To Show

Talked with a few different sources the past few days and the first of the winter steelhead are starting to show on the coastal streams.

Had one of the Makah tribal members in today that just happen to mention that a couple of our mutual friends on the reservation had been getting a few winter steelhead from the Sooes River.

Heard from another OP source that the Quillayutes had been getting some winter steelhead from the nets down on the main river.

One of the customers fished the Salmon River with one of the Quinault guides this past Sunday and managed to get 7 or 8 winter steelhead between them.

Overall it sounds as if the fish are definitely on the way. Hopefully we will see at least an average steelhead season this winter.
