It really is a beautiful river, I have not caught many fish out of it, but I really love it, rainbow fishing is basically impossible, but dolly and bull trout are commonplace, the salmon and steelhead run is insane every season, especially the fall, it’s a tough river to fish, due to the general lack of fish, but if you manage to get it down, then your gonna get some results 👍👍👍
