The Trask River continued to be fair for Spring Chinook this week. The rain brought more springers back to the river, and probably pushed fish upstream of the hatchery as well. At this point there should be some opportunity throughout the fishery, although the lower river will probably still be best.

Anglers are reminded that gear restrictions are in place May 1 to July 31 from the marker at Loren’s Drift (River Mile 9) to the Cedar Creek boat slide (River Mile 10.9); see the Salmon/Steelhead Bobber Fishing Rule on page 18 of the Sport Fishing Regulations.
