Hi everybody!
I live about 40-45 min. from the Salmon River, I fish it all the time: Except when the water hits 70 dgrs. I fish the 1st gush or two of Cohoes. When the Chinooks come in with the crowds I'm pretty much outa there. I don't do the winter thing, in the mild weather I chase Skamania and Atlantics and the Big Browns that follow them sometimes. As long as there isn't a major heat wave (this summer) It's a nice place to fish.
