The water temperature was not available this morning. Sunrise: 7:38 AM Sunset: 4:46 PM   We had just under two dozen guests join us on the run today. It was another solid day with just about every angler I spoke with hooking and landing multiple fish with few exceptions.  Steelhead were the predominant species today, however a total of (4) browns all between 20-25” were reported by two guests.  Angling techniques used were primarily Center pinning with floats, using egg sacs and or a variety of bead sizes in various colors; one happy angler who reached double digits used a dull orange imitation egg fly with a veil the entire day. The forecast for tonight: Mainly cloudy. Low 33F. Winds SE at 15 to 25 mph. The forecast for tomorrow: A steady rain in the morning. Showers continuing in the afternoon. High 47F.
