Hot steelheading continues on Clearwater despite heat

FISHING -- Idaho Fish and Game has just released creel reports for the past week through Saturday.

Clearwater River anglers from the Memorial Bridge to the mouth (water temp 46 degrees) averaged 9 fish caught per angler.  That's great.

Clearwater River anglers from Memorial Bridge at Lewiston up to Orofino Bridge (water temp 49 degrees), 5 fish per angler. Wow!

Snake River anglers downstream from Salmon River (water temp 72 degrees), 6 fish per angler.  Excellent.
