SALMON RIVER @ rIGGINS

Sunday, June 6th, 2010

Wow, we got 3 decent days of Salmon catching with all the constant and daily changes in barometric pressure. A deluge of rain, 3 inches in 2 days and more in places, has blown out the river. Went from 30,000 to 80,000 cfs in 24 hours. Still at that level for two days and if the rain stops, expected to drop precipitously. Hope to be back on the river soon, it is full of Salmon. The positive side of all this wet weather is the Morels are prolific. Morels and grilled Salmon, incredible!
