It's that time of the year when thousands of Steelhead Smolt's gather to work there way out to the ocean, at times it's nearly impossible to swing or drift your flies through a run without them being attacked. This will pass soon, it is a great sign for the future and a sign of a healthy river.

 

Steelhead are currently spread from Willow Creek to Lewiston but not in any great numbers yet, if you can find a piece of un-pressured water your chances of success improve greatly.

 

My November / December schedule is starting to fill, prime dates are limited, hope to see you this season.
