I did not go...looking at Thursday. Hope to squeeze in two trips this 4 day. Second trip will be decided on after Thursday.

I want to hit the river myself but Im a bit nervous never fishing the river and still getting used to the boat.  Sounds like they have been doing well below rocky reach as well.

Took mine there as well.  That was awesome.  I think I would be a bit more comfy if I get a new finder with GPS and Navonics.

below wells and Chelan falls has been good for kings... most guys are running pro troll 11" flashers with Brads super baits (cut plug) packed with tuna and trolled.

Dang...that's slow...maybe a walleye trip this weekend would be a better option until we get some summer heat!! Still fish coming...gotta get some heat!

I agree with huntnnw...here is a recent article/blog on the Chelan Falls Chinook fishery:

I would go to Banks. Three of us fished  Brewster for 8 hours, had six take-downs and only landed 3 sockeye. Saw two Chinook released ......very slow ! About 50+ boats on the water...need some July heat.

I was thinking about a run as well but think I will go antagonize the Wally's and Northerns around Kettle.
