SW Washington fishing report

SW Washington – Cowlitz River anglers were catching some spring chinook and summer steelhead. Chinook fishing should improve in the next few weeks although a banner run is not in the forecast. Jack catches are impressive for this early in the run.

The Kalama and Lewis Rivers have spring chinook and summer steelhead available. Both should be fair options this week with dropping flows.

Drano Lake and Wind River posted predictably good catches this week. This good action should continue as Bonneville Dam counts keep climbing. A sea-lion is working the area so fight your fish quick in order to retain your prize.
