Default Will the Wilson be fishable tomorrow?

Looks like they forecast that the wilson will be about 7.5ft around noon tomorrow. Is the Wilson fishable at that stage or will that still be too high? I need to fish. I live near the Sandy river and that was too high this weekend. I never get a day off when the conditions are good. I always get a day off when the water is too high. If not the Wilson tomorrow, any ideas????

I would try the nf nehalem or necanicum first they will drop the fastest.

I just came back from Tillamook, the Wilson was definetly greening up. It will fish, but be prepared to row untill it hurts. The water is going to be high!!

There are probably better chances of catching in a smaller river that clears faster. Listen to river ranger. If you must fish the wilson fish higher in the system fish the soft water off of the main current, use a bigger presentation and scent up good. The advantage you have is the color will be getting better and the river will be dropping. I like the wilson under six feet myself.
