Steel head catch rates seem to be improving for fisherman this week on the Grande Ronde river in Troy, Oregon. The Troy Resort's informal reports have been 0 to 8 fish per day this week, as opposed to the last couple of weeks where 0 to 3 fish per day were reported to us. In general, the fish being caught to date seem to be largely native fish with a select few hatchery (clipped adipose fin) fish being caught. With the colder nights and water, we're expecting numbers to continue to improve. This fisherman reeled in a beautiful native steel head today (left photo) and also caught a salmon (right photo); Thanks for sharing the great photos of your catch, Jesse!Thursday, October 21, 2010
