Elk River Report

Kenny Priest

According to Martin, another big school of salmon showed up at Elk River Hatchery Sunday and Monday with the latest rain. “Catch rates were good, but many of the fish were already dark. The Sixes was still high and muddy on Monday, but should fish well this week. Salmon season closes Dec. 31 on the Sixes.”
