Salmon River Steelhead, April 27th, 2024

Here is the Upper Salmon River steelhead fishing report filed a few days ago.

Steelhead angler effort during the past week on the Upper Salmon River was almost exclusively observed above the East Fork Salmon River in location code 19, and the average catch rate remained excellent within this area at six hours per steelhead caught. Very few angler interviews were obtained from downstream of the East Fork Salmon River in location codes 16, 17, and 18, and no anglers reported catching a steelhead from any of those areas. This information indicates that the peak of the Salmon River steelhead season is passing into history.
