So, did it recover?
Has anyone actually been to the river today and seen the conditions?

Millo with the snow level down on the mountains the river is in fine shape this am but very windy. When I stopped for a look I saw a chap land a bright coho salmon, taken on a spoon, like Rodney keeps saying they are still around, more fish than anglers. ;D ;D ;D

Supposed to be nice weather all weekend, hopefully the river is in good shape for my first outting on the hunt for steelhead.
