Steelhead Creel Report | March 02, 2011

The weather has been a little challenging lately but this has not kept anglers from having success catching Steelhead on the Wallowa River. Tom fished the Wallowa River yesterday and found the river to still be running clear even with the warmer temperatures. That could change very soon as it is very warm up in Joseph and the snow seems to be melting at an alarming rate. Looks like the Grande Ronde gauge near Troy is on the rise. With weather looking like it will stay warm for the rest of the week we might be in for another blow out. Let’s hope not. We will keep an eye on this and let you know what is going on.

I just received the Creel Report for the past few weeks and things are looking good. 3.7 hours per fish on average of over 100 anglers interviewed. These are numbers that we like to see.
