Rumors only.....nothing being caught.
Only been 480 steelhead go over the Falls. What's going on?
I think my buddy,Carl ('Pops' as Bernie calls him), has the answer
to catch springers. Call him up. He doesn't charge much for lessons.:applause::applause:

I think the pattern you will find is that there seems to be a little burst of springers that enter the Willamette system rather early...first couple 3 weeks of February. If you are lotto-lucky and have the time, you may intercept a small batch of these fish. But reality usually sets in as that pilot run dissapates rather quickly. There seems to be a dead spell and then,about 3 weeks later, mid march, numbers of fish will increase again and make it worth your while to launch the boat at daylight.
