Default smelt?????

any one know the status of the smelt... last rumor I heard is that they are holding in the river waiting for the levels to come down.

Went to Longview this a.m. to check on the smelt, none as of yet in the Cowlitz, nobody dipping, no sea-gulls on the river.
If my memory serves me right I believe I dipped smelt Feb. 7, last year on the Cowlitz.
Not far away.

I live real close to the Cowlitz and can update the board when they show. I drive by every morning to work. Last year they were in by now and almost done by the 3rd week of Feb.

It's probably the run-off water. Just a bit too cold yet. Really appreciate you folks that drive by the Cowlitz daily for giving us your reports.

Thanks,

Sore back

thanks for the update... two years ago missed it because I didn't know when it was... last year, it came early and I missed it... I want to get in on it this year, onthebank wants to use his net for more than catching leaves
