Yeah, definitely don't go fish the river where the early run of winters the use on most of the coastal streams comes from.....

Me and Rippin fish lips along with my other friend Mike went and it was DEAD SLOW!!!! We started out below the hatchery and there was about 30 or so other people . only saw one fish landed out of everybody there and it was dark! We decided the crowds were not worth it anymore and went and checked out Clemens park. we found some really nice spots that should have had fish in them, but no fish anywhere!!! :( We fished a solid five hours and no bumps or anything.... water was low and clear too btw and saw no fish. at least everybody (almost) else was getting skunked along with us! Ha ha that place is a zoo!!!

Well me and my friend went again this morning and I, along with everybody else that I talked to got the skunkapotamus!!! No fish hooked for anyone. fished below hatchery and at Clemens . water was a little off color but levels were good for my preference. I'm pretty sure that section of the river is void of fish! Ha ha I have seen some torn out gills alongside the banks, some fresh and some old so I know there is a couple here and there. I thought the run would be pretty solid by now but there is barely any there yet....

Bummer about the skunk, the river was rising slowly all day and maybe they weren't biting. I might head up there soon cause the Slaw is 12 ft and rising - i've got the bug - gotta steelhead fish soon!!! Maybe i'll see you up there.

Yeah I probably won't head back out there for another couple weeks or so until the action gets better. just way to slow to make the trip.... :/

You must of been with the group of three younger guys? My buddy Patrick who is also a member here(Hawg_Slayer) got skunked as well. He had a couple bites on the spinner though.
