Ya, that one was pretty beat up from the ladder. The second one I got was a lot more silver. There was a ton of Steelhead swimming by, and every time a sled went by they caught a fish right in front of us.

Lower stamp is super high and dirty. Went to money's today, it was hard fishing, too high in my opinion, no coho jumping, looks like there up top. Not sure how many steelies are in there. Took a look below the falls, not a single fish jumping. Looks like the coho hype is over and done with. Time to get catch the steelhead bug.

The higher water might bring in a bump of early winter steelies...and I'd imagine the hatchery has probably trucked a few hundred summer runs back down below the falls by now.

Ya your prboually right, although due to the water level it just makes the river more difficult to fish, with all the over hanging brunches and junk.

A question for you locals that hit the river often. Do you think it will be fishable this saturday? How high are the water levels right now?

Water is high, the stamp is always fishable but it's really is a lot harder, wait until sunday in my opinion then you can fish the stamp falls, opening day is the 15th.

Stamp is so high right now, went down there today, caught a nice little chromer. Fishing's tough with these conditions right now. All we can do is wait out the rain and hope for some dry spells.

good Idea, although as I said before sunday is the opening of the stamp falls, you might have some success trying your lucky there on beaver creek side. With the high water you can cast right in front of you just at the tail out of the pool. There's a bunch of bedrock right in front of the fallen tree and the steelies love to stage in the crevaces of that bed rock.

Some nice fresh winter steelies should be entering the system with the high water. Once the river drops just a touch and becomes that nice deep stamp green color, hit up the river with 4-6'' bubblegum pink worms - the early fish love them.

The river is sure running high up in the trees. But made it out for a couple hours yesterday afternoon and landed 2 summers.....been too darn busy to fish lately so I was lucky to hit some steel.

the winter fish are coming in now, got into 5 summers and 3 winters today on the lower half, got a nice 14 pound chromer that gave me a very nice scrap. Waters still high but fishable.
