The post below was helpful as I also try to catch my first winter steelhead for me or my son on the North Fork Alsea. I know it's important to get the bait to that sweet spot within two feet of the bottom, but how do I know how deep the North Fork of the Alsea is? How does it compare to the...

Thanks, y'all! Will try all this out! I've been to Fall Creek but never Little Fall Creek. We are going to try to the Willamette tomorrow.
