Funny thing is the fish there seem to get active around 10AM. Everything wakes up. That's when the deer come down, and the swans come out, and the fish start jumping like crazy.
I've seen this every time I've been there. But you do need to show up early to claim a spot. The fee collector said I was the first in the gate this morning (I literally woke her up). When I left there was a line of 10 cars waiting to get in.

I caught my springer there at 10:30 AM. I think Mgdguy said he caught his winter around the same time. But yeah, it's mostly all jumping and no bite.

T-B The first morning I caught 1 fought 2 and missed a very firm strike, the second morning I got one to the beach lost one and fished a fly missing the whole bottom of the hook till I left DOH! but action as far as catching was in bursts and I found it kinda strange, Im used to a little more consistent waters

How do you get there? Take the Hatchery road?

park early at the hatchery parking lot, wait for another car and fisherman to show up and follow them down the trail to the river, about3/4 of a mile or so.

Haha, I can relate. I missed one last weekend, and kept fishing. When I finally looked at my jig the point of the hook was bent over from a snag when I first got there. On my first cast the float hit the water and a steelhead jumped out from under it. 2 Missed opportunities in one day.

You're correct Anyfish - 10:45am. But it was a summer
I call 10am to 11am the "Magic Hour" for steelhead. If the bite is on, that's when I usually have the most action. Of course you still have to get up at the butt crack of dawn in order to claim your spot

Better then waking up at 2A.M and going to the Lewis river. And having your dad say "The water is too Murky, We can't catch anything, lets go home." And leaving.

Do yourself a favor and get a gas scooter instead. At least you can legally ride those on the street. I don't know about Gresham but most places have banned pocket bikes on the public streets. Scooters you can pretty much ride wherever. Same laws a bikes in Beaverton.
