Fishing Forum

Was wanting to make one last steelhead trip before the season closes, and was looking at hitting the little salmon. Never have fished for steelhead in riggins I was looking for a little help with where and what to fish. I have done some salmon fishing there but spend most of my time in the clearwater drainages. Any help would be appreciated. Drove through there a couple weeks ago on my way to orofino and noticed everybody was fishing close to smoky boulder. Do hatchery fish even run up that far. I always figured with the hatchery up rapid river thats as far up they would run.


Thanks

They release smolt all the way up, so that's where they are acclimated. There are fish all thorugh the system.
