Well the life of amatuers chasing steelhead hit a major hurdle today , as mother nature

is not playing nicely. A major front is parked right over the Pacific Coast creating some epic rain rain and river levels. Today alone the town of Forks recieved 2.89"

As We wake up this morning the following warning was posted to the Bogachiel River, our third river in the area

Day 1 was a bust as the rivers are blown outside the banks moving trees and probably creating 

some new channels. Ca couple of the rivers do not have gauges on the, but the graph on Calawah

crested over 11,000 CFS today and is still rising.

Our trip down to HOH river witnessed some very large torrent water , flowing at over 16,000 CFS

and rising. WOW some really water. Maybe we will get to fish on Wednesday!  Good thing our provision are in good supply.
