I caught a 46 out of the Klick 5 or so years ago.  Lots of fish, and quite a few big fish.

Some dandy fish. I have not fished the klick for fall fish in a few years now :'( I miss it we used to catch some great fish and I loved when the silvers moved in. Some of the best fishing I have ever had was catching silvers on the klick.

Historically, there were no fall chinook in the Klick.  The "wild" fish are the remnants of the hatchery releases.

Watch the bonneville counts and wait a few days once the numbers ramp up.

Good day of fishing. We released two others to make it a day. Can't wait for the river to open back up.

I should say that we thought we would limit. After releasing the next two the bite went off and we ended with three. Did that twice this year.

It can be. Just have to know the river. I fish it a couple times a week from June through September. Do you have a boat?

Do you fish the upper river?  I don't know that I have seen you before. What's the name of the business you guide for?

I can't wait for June. I daydream about rowing it everyday. It's a beautiful and fun river.
