With another mild day and blue bird skies, its certainly hard to resist any opportunity to go steelhead fishing.  Another dozen anglers joined us, a majority fishing the morning into the early afternoon.  Most efforts were focused in the middle and lower sections of the property, with the middle reporting the most activity today.  The reports we received from our anglers indicated fishing was a bit better this morning.  Once the sun hit the water, things quieted right down.  Overall, surprisingly more steelhead reported today, with quite a few anglers reporting one or two lost in addition to those landed.  Only a few anglers reported smallmouth today in the middle section.  The dam release is currently scheduled to be adjusted from 500 CFS to 350 CFS at 12:00 AM (5/10).  For updated dam release information, please visit safewaters.com/facility/lighthouse-hill
