Salmon River Update – 19 August 2015

With a few more fisherman in the river this week a handful and I mean very few salmon were spotted, a couple alive and in the fish ladders at the hatchery and a few that had expired likely due to the warm river temps pushing the low seventies.

There are still some stocked browns to be had around Pineville that will sure keep you busy. The Lower Fly Zone remains closed until September 15th and the Upper Fly Zone is open and still no weighted flies or lines. Be sure to check the Special Salmon River Regulations when heading out.
The Douglaston Salmon Run is still fishing well for the stocked brown trout and small mouth bass. It wont be long now for the beginning of the 2015 fall run and keep your eyes on that weather, look for periods of rain to bring in those first fall run fish.
