The Wilson is in good shape, and fishing is still good. Hatchery and wild winter steelhead, and a few early hatchery summer steelhead are in the river. Many of the winter steelhead are getting dark, but there should still be some late bright fish. Float fishing jigs, beads, or bait, drift fishing, nymphing, and swinging flies or spinners are all good techniques.

A few spring Chinook will begin to show in the river over the next few weeks.

Anglers are reminded that the Little North Fork of the Wilson, and the South Fork Wilson closed to steelhead fishing on April 1.
