Despite the low, clear conditions, the fishing is still pretty good reports Justin Kelly of RMI Outdoors of Eureka. “The fish are still spread out, but the fishing seems to be better downriver right now. With the low flows, they are holding in the deeper holes and slots. It’s pretty much a bobber-only fishery at this point as finding spots that have current is getting tougher. The best bite is before the sun hits the water or closer to dusk,” Kelly added.
