This is an email from my buddy Dan who is a full time guide up there, he is one of the better fisherman in the area. Hope it helps
As of today the weather has been decent with temps in the low to mid 30s for a high with light and variable winds that makes for great conditions on the Salmon River! We fished yesterday from Pineville to 2a with no other boat traffic and only ran into 2 other anglers that reported a decent bite that we were well aware of!!! After a full day on the water we ended up boating 9 fish with one being a fiesty brown trout and as far as the steelhead went they were of average size but did run into some fresh chrome fish towards the end of the day! The fish were biting mostly on beads in glo roe and natural roe, though we did try other baits we didnt find anything they wanted. Water levels are low, the pineville gauge is reporting around 385 cfs and the clarity is super clear so if you are headed up to tackle the river run light leaders in the 4 to 6 pound range and small baits!
