Steelheading on the Cowlitz Slow due to Muddy Water

Uncategorized Add comments

Well the fishing fanatics were out on the Cowlitz despite brown muddy water.  There were at least 30 boats in side drifting in front of the Blue Creek ramp.  Some steelhead were caught but it was few and far between.  I did not see any chrome fish on the bank or coming out of the boats.  All the fish had color and appeared to be early November fish.  The Kalama was green and threw out a few fish for the anglers that were on the water.  I moved up above the side drifting horde and threw plugs out the back of the boat.  I ran dark plugs in the slow water and we managed to pull a few half hearted hits but did not hook up solid on the fish.  It was one of those all around tough fishing days on the Cowlitz.
