The low water closure is in effect in the lower river.
New this year, a portion of the upper river, which is already closed to Chinook, will be closed to ALL fishing to protect Chinook staging to enter spawning tributaries. This area is normally open to steelhead fishing, but very few steelhead are in the system when the Chinook are around and this closure will keep anglers who are targeting steelhead from hooking fall chinook.
Anglers are always reminded to check the regulation updates for the low water closure period, wild Chinook bag limits, and fishing boundary changes.
