The F&G website says it will be open at least until Wednesday. They are suppose to make a decision today if they are going to keep it open any longer.
Hope it stays open one more weekend. They say we are only at 60% of what we can catch so I am thinking positive. Hope they make up there mind soon so I know what I am doing.

upper salmon river chinook season update
The Chinook salmon fishing season will remain open on the upper Salmon River, upstream of the city of Salmon, through at least Wednesday, July 22. Idaho Fish and Game fishery managers will assess the fishery on Monday for the likelihood of additional fishing days after Wednesday. Anglers already have taken a total of 1,601 adult Chinook salmon, which is about 60 percent of the state's nontribal harvest share in the upper Salmon River.
