I have fished the salmon river a few times over the years. But have had varried
succes. Does any know the prime time of year to fish this stream. Also has anyone fished
the tribal waters? What are the costs? and who to contact? I know it all depends on the weather,But I am planning a Gentlemens only
trip and need any helpful ideas.Remember "SET
THE HOOK" Bruce

Hey Steelheadfan! I fish Cook creek and Salmon river tribal water all the time, I just talked to the guy I go with and they are catching steelhead in the salmon...man, it is a great fishery over there! they really take care of their streams....am thinking about going this saturday... going rate is 75-100.00 depending who you go with... here are a few names.. Letty, she is really good and fun! she is a great fishing woman... Dean and Shawn Johnstone are also good! tell them Danny sent you! good luck!

Usually Dec. Jan. are the best for Hatchery steelhead on the salmon River. However, with all the rain the hatchery timing will be sooner, like it was last year. Also the Queets tribal fishery has only been 1 day a week for about a month now. That means the early fish will won't be hit by the nets. Should be a real good season. You can contact Letty at potter@olynet.com good luck.
