SW Washington fishing

SW Washington- Creel checks on the Cowlitz revealed poor results for both bank and boat anglers. It should be good early season fishing on the Cowlitz but when more coho are being caught than steelhead, something seems wrong with that picture.

The Kalama remains an option for late chinook but a waning one. The high water event slated for Friday should wipe out this last chance option for the season with the exception of a possible window after Christmas.

The Klickitat is still putting out fresh coho although the quality of fish is deteriorating. It's been an impressive year here and can't last too much longer.
