We also got our limit of salmon and had a wonderful day with the weather being just perfect once again! I do have a major concern though right now with the lower Klamath river. Dept. of Fish & Game and Dept. of Water Recources need to open your eyes! Our fish are dying due to a lack of oxygen and cold water. Water needs to be released from the dam. These fish have not even spawned yet and they are dying!!! Salmon fishing on the Klamath has been getting better every year and now they are killing our fishery, and it looks ugly for everyone. Someone needs to go to jail!!! We will be out on the river again tomorrow.

Our trip didn't start till 11a.m. We hooked one adult fish and landed it. We hooked a bunch of half pounders, but we don't count those. Today I fished Bill and Steve. We hooked three adult fish and lost them all. That's fishing! It looked like everyone was hooking fish today. The water color was real fine today and the water a little high. But the water level now, in the 10's, is a prime level for fishing and the weather looks good for the weekend. Don't forget our package deal: one night at the Hiouchi Motel, one breakfast at the Hiouchi Cafe, and one day of fishing on the Smith River for two people @ $360.00.
