Guys, If I read it right, it will stay open tomorrow thru Sat. and then close for the season. Another meeting is scheduled for Mon. which may or may not change things.
Norm, there are fish, just not biting real well.

Steve King told me today that Monday's decision may very well close the river down for a while...they'll wait then for the summers to get here and could reopen in a few weeks.
He also said the fishing has been better in the Willamette than the Columbia...

Did Steve say we would be at or close to the sport impact or are they closing it on Monday because of total impact?
