WWB 2024 Update Feb 8th to Feb 12th!

Things are kicking right along here on the Salmon River! Water conditions still haven’t been ideal but these ladies have been determined and we are still managing to get some steelhead hooked. Towards the end of this week water conditions started to get better and we really had a stir up on the leaderboard, follow along to see!

Thursday, 2-8

Brandi Kings boat went out with Sam and James upriver. Crystal and Lita Martinez both landed 2 wild steelhead. They brought some trash fish to the boat as well.

Over on Liz De Kruyf’s boat, with Brian & Dylan, Kristen Thomas reeled in a wild steelhead, and someone took a fireball nap 😀

Then, we are gonna jump over to Rich and Paul’s boat, with Jill Linville’s group. Katie Scott landed a 32 inch keeper! This at the time jumped her into First Place Biggest Fish. She was our 2022 Biggest Fish winner too, nicely done, Katie!

Friday. 2-9

Little bit of a slower day today for catching but a couple ladies managed to get it done! On Ashley VanFossen’s boat with Paul and Willie, Kate Avery landed a wild fish.

upriver, We had Natacia French’s group. Mari Sorsabal landed a wild fish with Sam & Colt!

Saturday, 2-10

Kate Bostwick’s group with Rob & Billy at Spring Bar landed one steelhead. Karlee Kerr was the lucky lady with that one!

We had one group bring out the lucky charm of dressing  and it almost worked! Kandie and her group made sure to have themselves a good time 😉

Sunday, 2-11!

Only a couple boats out today, everyone wanted to have super bowl parties instead, I guess!

Danielle King’s boat had a triple! Dustie Valentine, Gina Eguisquizza and Meka Mchemry all 3 landed 1 wild steelhead each!

Brian and Andrew’s group had a great day with a couple trash fish but no steelhead.
