Skykomish River - August 2nd, 2004

RECORDED:
80 °
FISHING: Fair
A few reports here and there of a few fish, but generally the season has been very slow.
The water in general is very low. Stephen fished on Sunday and found the water below High Bridge to be very low and difficult to find good swing water. I would recommend fishing from above High Bridge into the forks. A few fish have been reported here.
Same program as last report. Fish early and late on bright days and generally keep your wet flies small. Don't be afraid to fish dries and use big ones at that!
Keep the faith and you'll get a grab. And if you lose faith, think about the Cowlitz and Kalama as the SW WA rivers have generally had very good returns.
