The Wilson River is one of the North Coast most popular winter steelhead rivers and gets one of our largest hatchery releases. Hatchery winter steelhead on the Wilson are from wild broodstock; as such they tend to mimic wild steelhead timing and the run really gets going in mid-December. It is still early but we are getting reports of both hatchery and wild (catch and release only for wilds) steelhead being caught.

The Wilson got high and muddy last weekend but dropped back into shape quickly. It may be on the low and clear side by this weekend.
