Today's Report

October 7, 2024

4:30pm River Patrol Fishing Report:  The flow from the dam is 350 cfs; the Pineville gauge is at 459 cfs; water temperature is 61 degrees as of 4pm.  Today was the first day that really felt like fall was in the air with temperatures in the low 50s and a moderate N/NW breeze.  The overall fishing report was once again solid with Kings and Cohos spread throughout, along with steelhead, (which should be on the increase with each passing day now.)  Guest volume was highest in the mid to upper river, with low pressure at the very top and very bottom of the run.  Tomorrow’s weather will be in the mid-40s to start with a strong chance of showers thru 12pm, (approximate accumulation 1/3”), with light NW winds, becoming partly sunny for the remainder of the day and winds increasing 10-12 mph from the NW.

High around 60F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph. The middle of the run has a good number of anglers with the north side of the river anglers having a bit better success than the south side of the river. The upper end of the river has a moderate number of anglers that are having success, while the lower end on the south side the anglers are working a little harder today. The fish are moving up river along the run, with some holding in place in the middle of the run. Kings and Coho have been noted through out the run, with a Brown sighted at the top of the run. The flow remains the same at 350CFS out of the Dam and out of Pineville 459CFS.

Yesterday's Report

October 6, 2024

5:00pm River Patrol Fishing Report:  Today’s afternoon reports weren’t quite as stellar as yesterday, however there were plenty of Kings, Cohos, along with a steelhead and brown landed.  Of note, our river patrol on the lower beats noticed more salmon moving from the estuary up into the main river than they had on any day previously this year which bodes well for the next few days, (hopefully.)  Tomorrow will start off with mostly cloudy skies, temperatures in the mid-50s, not expected to get beyond 60, with N / NW winds from 8-14 mph and a moderate chance of showers thru the day.   [caption id="attachment_70471" align="alignnone" width="300"] Nice King landed by Levi and Son guided by Brian Ferman of 'High Hook' guide service.[/caption]

5:00pm River Patrol Fishing Report:  The flow from the dam is 350 cfs; Pineville gauge is 453 cfs; water temperature taken at 3pm is 66 degrees.  It seems very likely that many of the fish milling about the estuary decided to make some movement upriver today as fishing was listed by most of the guests I spoke with as being the best this season so far.  From the lower end to the upper, except for the very top of the run, fish were brought to hand in solid numbers.  Kings, Cohos, a lone brown and steelhead were all in the mix.  Tomorrow we’ll start the day off in the mid-40s with S / SE winds reaching 10-12 mph, along with a slight chance of rain during the day, possibly having some thunderstorms move in at nightfall.  (Total Rain expected not more than ¼”.)

It looks like the over night winds and some rain has improved the fishing today, along with the lower water temperature of 59F this morning. Our guests have been having success all up and down the run. The number of anglers are mostly in the main section of the run with less activity in the extreme upper and lower ends of the run. River Patrol has noted that the fish are all moving upriver and hardly any holding in pools. The weather today will have areas of patchy fog early. Plenty of sunshine. High 67F. Winds NNW at 5 to 10 mph. The cooler temperatures should make the fishing a bit more comfortable today. The Dam is holding at 350CFS and out of Pineville 453CFS. This nice Brown was caught by George who's being guided by Scott Mathna of Redlegg Outfitters.

5:00pm River Patrol Fishing Report:  Flow from the dam is 350 cfs; Pineville gauge reading is 459 cfs; water temperature is 62 degrees.  The uptick experienced this morning seemed to carry over on the run, even though weather conditions changed little from yesterday.  Cohos continue to make a strong showing thru the length of the run, with Kings being about equal in numbers. It’s fair to say that both morning and afternoon showed some improvement in the number of fish hooked as well as landed over the previous days.  Tomorrow should see temperatures start of around 50 degrees, reaching the mid-60s by late afternoon, with light N / NW winds.

4:30pm River Patrol Fishing Report:  The flow from the dam is 350 cfs; the Pineville gauge is reading 459 cfs; current water temperature is 61 degrees.  Even though the water temperature has dropped a few degrees over the past couple of days this didn’t seem to put the salmon in the mood to make any major movements up-river from the estuary or lake.  All beats reported slow to moderate fishing success with Kings the primary species encountered and Cohos tapering off a bit, along with angler volume being low to moderate density throughout. Tomorrow’s weather is scheduled to mimic today for the most part, with temperatures starting out in the low 40s, increasing to the mid to upper 60s by afternoon, with light variable winds.

An ugly start to the day with drizzle and a chilling rain for the morning that cleared off nicely for the afternoon. The reports from up and down the river were very similar in that angler density was moderate and fishing success was slow. There are fish around (primarily Kings) and the more persistent anglers are having some success, but all are waiting a more serious push of fish. Reports from the lake indicate that they are still "pounding" the fish out there and it's just matter of time when those fish enter into the run. When? That's the 64,000 question. Flow from the dam remains at 350cfs through midnight tomorrow and the flow at Pineville is 464cfs (up about 20 cfs from this morning.

Beautiful Fall weather, but a challenging day for most on the run today. Both Coho and Kings are present, but anglers worked to get fish. Top to bottom the feedback from our anglers as well as River Patrol told the same story, moderate to low angler density, limited success with most fish moving upstream rather than holding in pools. "They're there. You gotta work for 'em." Flow from the dam remains at 350cfs and at Pineville 419cfs. This mornings water temperature was 62 degrees.
