Hi everyone, this is the Upper Salmon River steelhead fishing report for February 20, 2024. The data discussed in this report was collected between Tuesday, February 13th and Sunday, February 19th.

As mentioned in last week’s river condition report, the spring steelhead fishery on the Upper Salmon River is off to an early start in 2024. The Deadwater ice jam opened on February 7th, and we started to see catch rates really pick up downstream of Deadwater as soon as the river’s visibility improved. The timing of the ice jam opening was a full month and a half ahead of last year and a month ahead of other recent years.

IDFG personnel began conducting angler interviews early last week in the areas downstream of Challis, Idaho. Angler effort was low in all areas until the weekend when effort increased considerably in location code 15, between the Middle Fork Salmon River and the North Fork. Angler effort upstream of North Fork was low throughout most of the week before slightly increasing over the weekend.
