Effort continues to drop on the main stem of the Clearwater. Anglers out fishing are fishing in front of Dworshak Dam on river section 03 or at the boat ramp/ bridge of river section 05 (North Fork). The South Fork of the Clearwater continues to attract a large group of anglers on the weekends. Most of the documented effort is around the Mountain Idaho Hole.
The Little Salmon had the best catch rates this past week by Riggins while river section 11 on the Salmon documented low effort. - Jaime Robertson, Fisheries Technician 2, Clearwater Region
