Fall Chinook are available in the Necanicum basin. There has been enough rain that fish should have migrated upriver and be throughout the fishery. The Necanicum is a small basin and drops much faster than many other North Coast Rivers. This could be a good bet for late this weekend or early next week after the storm predicted for Friday.
