Winding Waters Fishing Report

The Steelhead are beginning to arrive in the Grande Ronde. The first pods are making their way up into the Troy area already. A couple of weeks ago 6 fish were caught by 2 anglers in a single day and we have been picking them up periodically since then. We are now waiting for some rain to send a cool wave of water down the river to get those fish moving again. They have been coming over the dam in numbers greater than the 10 year average this season. We are expecting to see a great run after we see a little rain and a rise in the water levels.

I will be keeping you posted on the Status of the GR Steelhead as they begin to arrive. Please feel free to leave a comment and let us know about what you are finding out there.

It has been a while since my last posting but I am back. We just got back from a great fishing trip in Hells Canyon. The Bass were on fire down there. We had a great time catching our fill of Smallmouth.

This was also a successful Sturgeon trip. We caught 2 very nice Sturgeon both about 8 feet long. If you have never experienced this, you better put it on your list.

We saw some good hopper action yesterday on the Wallowa. The Madam X proved to be the fly of the day. The late afternoon fishing produced the best dry fly action as the sun began to set over the ridge of the Canyon. See you on "The River"
