This week: - Steelhead Bee's (Because the patterns fresh) - Get a start on EHC's for next spring. - Catch up my river journal observations at the unusual low water this fall. (It'll come in handy in a few years when it happens again.. Especially the early river closures.) - Make sure there is enough Scotch on the shelf to get me through March (See below)
Next Few Months: - Read and learn about the winter runs. - Start hording pink fly-tying material. - Practice Convincing myself standing in a freezing river, fighting off the rain and cold is worth a shot at a winter Steelie. -----Original Message----- From: T.

Please be courteous and erudite when you contribute. With that said, let's move on: After a long dry spell and collective complaining about low water levels and stubborn fish, it's finally raining! River levels are up all over Western WA. For those of us who are new to the pursuit of anadromous species, what can we expect for the next few months? Or more immediately, NOW what do we do?
