Water level is up below the dam, temp went up, moving the spawning Salmon up, and leaving Steelhead to be hooked. Low pressure and plenty of decent Steel hooked and banked this eve.:smash:

Ever fish the N. Santiam?

Yes, esp Fishermans, Minto, Greens Bridge, and N Santiam parks. I havent hit it hot yet. I do read Sandersons reports, gets me motivated since its nice spinner water with a good variety of fish. I hear Lg Rainbows are hitting egg patterns below the Spawning Salmon.

Sounds good. I will be on the river Saturday to guide a rafting trip and thought I go a little early to get a line wet.

PM sent.
If you fish the North River, I suggest you join local steelheaders for great reports.

and back to the river of topic, S.S. Steelhead were recycled on the 21st.
