Bank anglers are picking up a few steelhead in between storms. Anglers able to fish the river as it drops between the frequent storms seem to be doing the best. The river flows are expected to remain too high for boat anglers.
There are new license requirements to fish for winter steelhead in 2023 on south coast rivers and anglers should check the new regulation book prior to fishing.
