Anybody out there been salmon fishing yet this year with any success? I know the rivers are still pretty high but I'm getting anxious!

I went to Riggins early in the season. I got skunked until I ran out of roe and switched to lures, at which time every small trout in the river jumped on.  No keepers for me. :(

Don't wanna brag but yeah have had some success. Caught 8, 4 of them were adults (one was native and had to be released).  Been fishing the main Clearwater just out of Kamiah using shrimp.  had a couple of really slow days and the water has been crazy but it was a great run this year (pretty well thinning out here now)

Those are some nice fish Longshot! I've been watching the water on the S.Fork, still pretty high might head up next week. Nature eventually has to take it's course and the fish have to spawn sometime!
