Williamson River - May 18th, 2004
supplied by: Trophy Waters
FISHING: Good
The Williamson River is opening this weekend. The section above the marsh has been open, but the section you see when driving on Hwy. 97 is opening on May 22nd. Opening day is usually darn good fishing, and the fishing stays good until about mid-July. The County Park below the Chiloquin Bridge is a good put in for boaters, and the Water Wheel Campground is the take out. A small fee is charged. Get a shuttle from the general store in Fort Klamath. Be sure to call in advance for arrangements.
Collier Park is the best foot access early season until the water drops. Also pontoon boats can be put in at Collier and drift to the town of Chiloquin. This is a LONG float, be sure to allow for plenty of time. Also, above Chiloquin fisherman cannot fish from a floating device like is legal below the bridge.

Williamson River - September 17th, 2003
supplied by: Trophy Waters
FISHING: Good
The fish have all been stuck twice. They're stacked in the low clear pools. The hex hatch is over.
You might still have some great days if you know the river, but I wouldn't spend my hard earned day off here. Still, the fish are huge and if you want to do battle, go with a plan. Clear lines. Flourocarbon leaders, 5x 9-12ft. And fish the small stuff. Your favorite soft hackle in #18 or #20 and yes that's for the big fish. Throw some brown, or black dubbed leeches when the sun is off the water. This fishery will be like a tempermental light switch for the rest of the season. On or Off. A banner day, or a bust.
Mike Trask of Rogue River Oregon tells us that the Williamson was worth his trip. With two entry level fishers in the boat the managed to hang 5 big trout. Only one big fish landed, not an uncommon ratio for this river. He said the hot fly was a small #18 or #16 Flashback P.T. With a swagger on his face, reminiscent to that of Luke Skywalker when Obi-Wan Kenobi agreed to lead Luke through the allderon , Mike noted that the guide at the lodge where he stayed only hooked 2 for the day.
For a shuttle on the river try the general store in Fort Klamath. Also, a great "shuttle-less" trip is to put in at the Water Wheel(there is a fee) camp ground and fish down stream for a few hours to the first riffle. Rowing back to the ramp is no problem if you don't go below the riffle.
