This year is definitely putting the “winter” in winter steelhead. The Nehalem is high and muddy and may be that way through the weekend. Check current river levels before heading out. Steelhead should be well distributed in the system by now.

The Salmonberry River should produce some good fishing opportunity as we approach the peak of the run. Anglers are reminded to check with the Port of Tillamook Bay about access along the railroad right of way.

The North Fork Nehalem has some opportunity for mostly wild steelhead this time of year, although the occasional hatchery fish is still present.
