Even the best designed and actively operated fish ladders only pass a small proportion of the fish that would go upstream under natural conditions. The Current River fish ladder definitely passes "some" steelhead, but the number that go in a given year depends a lot on water conditions and weather. 2 Quote I'm going out to fish. - John 21:3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clewis 25 Report post Posted May 23, 2016 Anyone having luck still? Sight fishing in low water? I've been successfull still, wondering what a go-to bait would be for clear water and spotting them. I've been successful on yarn flies so far for the low clear conditions Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
