While drifting the "Canyon" Rilea Sonnevil finds a cooperative Rogue River Chinook

Instead of having a nice moderate winter with average river levels, we have gone from super high water in December to super low levels accompanied with ice cold temperatures in January. Early February will hopefully bring us the change we are looking for.

For most of our coastal rivers, we are now in waning days of winter steelheading which will close on March 31st. Several systems will stay open however and continue to produce winter steelhead well into April.
