Nehalem River Fishing Report

nehalem was pretty quiet today, rain was just a tease. still, managed to pull in a 6lb trout from under the bridge. used a worm and bobber combination. kinda slow overall but I really enjoyed the peacefulness of it all, just me and the river vibes.

patchy rain again but went out for the morning. caught 2 nice bass, both around 4lbs. used a crankbait, man those guys were hungry! wind was a bit rough at times, but all in all was a good time. always something about the nehalem that keeps me coming back.

well today was a mess, rain was on and off, really got soaked. but I got lucky! landed a big 12lb steelhead! used a pink drift bobber rig, fished it slow. ended up being the only bite I got but hey, a good catch makes a muddy day worth it.

rain came back today, like it never left lol. still pulled in a couple nice cutthroats in the early morning. temp was a bit chilly, but I found a nice spot under some cover. bread bait worked like a charm! love this river, even in the rain!

partly sunny today, finally some good weather! hit the nehalem and was so stoked to land 5 salmon! they were pretty decent sized too, around 7-8lbs. used a spinner and it was on fire. felt great to be out, just me and the river for a change.
