Also, try swinging flies through the tailouts of riffles. Rain should get the steelhead moving and improve the fishing once the water clears. The whole river from the mouth to the dam is open. Access at Sailor Bar, Lower Sunrise, Rossmoor, Goethe Park, Gristmill, and Watt Ave. Baum Lake Mid 40s F, clear.
Fishing is good.
Best fishing is from 10am to 3pm. Fishing a midge pupa or small mayfly nymph under an indicator is catching fish throughout the day. Concentrate on fishing seams of currents and the slots between weed beds. Good midge and BWO hatches midday can provide decent dry fly action. Dark colored wooly buggers on sinking lines are working.
