I had a question, how long do the summerun steelhead stay in the nooch, and when do the first winter run come in? also how long do the silvers come in, will we have some fresh ones in next rain or will the steelies be in next rain? thanks for all the help this is my first real year fishing the Wynoochee.
(I usually fish just above whitebridge)

I am going to drift it on Friday if the river comes up. I will tell you how I did, if I go.

Ryan,

The summer runs will be in the river until after they spawn, which will likely peak in February, some earlier, some later. The first winter runs, if they aren't there now, will show with the very next rain. And there will probably be fresh silvers showing for a few weeks yet, depending on overall run strength and weather.

Sincerely,

Salmo g.
