A “mostly high water” fishing report 12/19/25
It is mostly a wash-out throughout the entire Pacific NW with very few fishable rivers. The one that is still fishable for sure is the Fall River, and I am not sure I trust the gauges on the Crooked but the internet says the flow from Bowman Dam remains 100 cfs.
