Fishing remains stellar on the Clearwater River
We have experienced one of the best steelhead seasons in 20 years. River temps are currently on the rise as we are experiencing a warming trend causing a bit of snow melt.
This is usually a signal for the Steelhead to move into the Clearwater and make their way towards Orofino Idaho and Dworshak national fish hatchery.
February is poised to be possibly our best month of catch rates for Steelhead in the Clearkwater.
