The Nestucca River has a wild broodstock hatchery run, meaning the hatchery steelhead here are from wild origin. As such they mimic the wild run timing which peaks now through March. This will be one on the best bets for hatchery winter steelhead for the remainder of the season. The Nestucca was slow for steelhead last weekend, and most likely won’t improve until we get some rain and warmer temperatures. Hopefully that will happen early next week.
