it has been difficult to fish for about 2 weeks, gnat creek has been dropping into shape and has good fish in it right now.... BC should be ok by friday, I went by the NF yesterday and it was a joke, and also poor water conditions, from st helens it is only 1 hr to the deadline of the wilson, 1 hr and 25 minutes to klootchy park on the necanicum.. big creek is about an hour and 20 minutes from you so if your not feeling it try those-
