Flows have been running high and steady all week, and that’s lit up the lower Klamath with big schools of steelhead pushing upriver. Water came up midweek with dam releases peaking around 4,100 cfs before slowly dropping off, but even as flows settle, there’s still plenty of movement and fresh fish filtering in.

The steelhead bite has been excellent, with most boats connecting with multiple fish daily, and it’s clear the main push is underway. Look for more pulses of fish moving up as the flows stabilize even more so heading into next week. Salmon are showing up in the lower river, but remember, they are currently off limits.

Stay current on regulations and make sure you have your Steelhead Card in hand.
