Pete Cunningham was nice enough to fish with us today. With cold surface water temps and low flow, it was a day to motor up to the lower pens and get some powerbait down there. The bite was steady. Pete, Jeff and Andy got their limits. No big fish today. When bait fishing you need to take what comes.

Then on the way home Andy convinced Jeff to stop and hop out to try their luck for steelhead. Andy got a very nice 10.8 pound hatchery hen on a shrimp baited Worden's Maxi jig under a slip bobber.

We are so lucky to have all these quality fisheries so close to home.

Thanks, Pete

Andy & Jeff were driving back to Manson from Rufus and stopped at one of their favorite runs. They were below Wells where the road gets close to the river. Hop the tracks and cast.
