Upper Columbia Steelheading Starts Today!
Today is the season opener of the upper Columbia steelhead season and it's tributaries that surround our Omak, WA fly shop. The Wenatchee, Icicle, Methow, and Okanogan Rivers are all open for Steelhead fishing until further notice. The Similkameen will be open starting November 1st.
IÂ guess Keith in Omak was almost dead on with his predictions of an opening date in this months emag. As of the most recent count data on 10/4 there were over 18,000 steelhead over Priest Rapids Dam.
Stop in our shop and get your steelhead license and catch card, sink tips, Spey lines, the best local steelhead fly selection for central Washington anywhere, and whatever else you need.
If you're a skier you might say its a "powder day"... Go fish.

On the river trying out my new XACT Loop spey rod. It handles great. Pressure on the Methow is lite. Had a couple of good tugs. I'm use to throwing a single hander this is my second day throwing the 2 hander. Having a blast.
