Coastal Fly Fishing Report

Coastal SteelheadApr 19, 20181 min read

John Rickard reports on 4.19.18

The Coast

Whether you just can’t give up swinging the Spey rod, chasing steelhead or just love fishing on the coast, the Smith River is your bet. The river closes at the end of the month and is dropping into perfect shape for her last days of the season. Flows will be around 3000 this weekend. 

Still… chrome bright fish enter from the sea and charge upstream to spawn. Some anglers swear the biggest of the year come at this time. We have guides who love this place and one who lives on her banks.
