Sol Duc River - January 23rd, 2006
supplied by: Angler's Guide Service
RECORDED: 
47 °
FISHING: Excellent
The Sol-Duc is in and so are the fish. It's that time of the year. The first big push of wild fish have shown up along with a few straggling Hatchery fish. You will see a few of our Snider Creek fish in the next several weeks and an increase in the number of wild fish. The river is dropping and clearing every day into the emrald green Sol-duc that we all have come to love.
The fish are marching there way up the river, so they can be caught through the whole system. It is Selective gear rules above the Salmon Hatchery, so if you are interested in using bait or keeping a fish you must fish below the hatchery. Down in this section it is fished by pulling plugs, drift fishing, side-drifting or floatfishing. With the water at this heighth we have been sidedrifting this stretch and producing 8 to 12 fish a day.
The upper river from Riverside to the Hatchery is very productive this time a year with the fish headed to this stretch to spawn. DO NOT FLOAT THIS IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN DOWN iT BEFORE. The best techniques in this stretch is to float fish either Beau-mac or Aero Jigs or to Pull Plugs in some of the longer runs or deep pools.
This is a great stretch to fly fish with plenty of fish stacking up in preperation to spawn. We like to swing big flies in Black ,Orange, Pink, Red or Purple in marabous, Spey's, practionier's or Hairball Leeches. As the water drops we will fish alot of the smaller pockets with a glo bug or a Bead from www.troutbeads.com.
Guide Bob Kratzer fish Riverside and Bear creek today and hooked 18 fish on Worms and Jigs. Guide Mike Zavadlov fly fished this same strech and hooked 3 fish on flies.

Low water levels once again but the last few freshets have put numerous Silver Salmon through this beautiful stream. There are also enough bright Fall King Salmon in here now to really keep things interesting.

Sol Duc River - October 10th, 2005
supplied by: Fishing Northwest
FISHING: Good
Washington River Levels
Water level is still extremely low but the Silvers have been moving through in excellent numbers. These fish are primarily hatchery fish and are averaging a hefty 12 -13 lbs. We have been very fortunate in the last few trips and have convinced enough of them to bite to fill many of our clients coolers but overall they have been in a very standoffish mood.

Sol Duc River - September 8th, 2005
supplied by: Fishing Northwest
FISHING: Good
The BIG Picture:
Quillayute system rivers are still running very low. There have been several big pushes of Silver Salmon through the Quillayute River recently. The Hoh and Queets Rivers are in excellent shape with a few fresh Summer-run Steelhead beginning to show up in catch able numbers
FLY FISHING REPORT: Good friend and world class boat builder Alex Martinac swung up to visit with me last week-end and he also swung up a feisty Wild Summer-run Steelhead on the Calawah R. while he was here.
There has been a meager run of wild fish in the Calawah R. this Summer but we have been fortunate enough to encounter and exercise quite a few of them. There are still plenty of hatchery Steelhead in the lower section of the river and still a few very hefty Cutthroat around.
Conventional River Reports:
Sol-Duc (sole~duck) River-- Plenty of Summer Silver Salmon in here right now but they have been in a very "difficult" mood. The high water temps and super clear and low conditions are a major factor.
Sol-Duc River Cam [CLICK HERE]
NOTE: Wild Steelhead catch & release reg's are in effect.
Bogachiel River -- Classic late summer bath tub like conditions and pretty darn slow fish'n in here until we get our annual Fall freshets.
NOTE: Wild Steelhead selective gear regulations as well as catch & Release reg's are in effect above the US HWY 101 bridge.

Calawah River-- Status unchanged, very low and clear, same as it is every year at this time, and the fish are very tough to convince. There are good numbers of Steelhead in the last few pools of this river but once the sun touches the water the show is over.
NOTE: Wild Steelhead selective gear regulations as well as catch & Release reg's are in effect.

HOH RIVER -- It was in beautiful shape yesterday when Kim and I floated from Morgans crossing to "Peterson's". However we didn't have a single piece of fishing gear with us, we were loaded up with four labs, two 16 gauge shotguns and by the time we took out we had 6 fat grouse :) but conditions for fish'n looked perfect.
Wild Steelhead catch and Release regulations are still in effect.
CLICK HERE: To go to USGS hydrograph of the HOH RIVER
Queets River-- Good, some Silver Salmon showing up and yet a few more Summer-run Steelhead here and there.
CLICK HERE: To go to USGS hydrograph of the Queets River
Quillayute River -- The fish tend to really scoot up and zip through here during the Summer, especially the Silver Salmon. It's been a doozy of a "flossing" match in here during the past couple weeks.
Lower Quinault River-- To fish this river you will need a Quinault Nation licensed fishing guide.
Please Contact: www.lettypotter.com give them a call and I'm sure you'll have a fine time
Sooes ("soo-yes") River, Neah Bay-- No recent report. You will need a tribal permit to fish this little river, available in Neah Bay at Washburns General store 360-645-2211.
