The weather for this week might make it a bit better---some snow and then cold, clear days.

As for some of the other rivers (around the sound), WDFW put out a few emergency closures a couple days ago.

If I can connect with a decent buck in the next couple of days I will be hitting the water later in the week.

Yeah, isn't it awesome that we can't keep "un clipped " steelhead and coho but the tribes can kill anything that swims. Sounds like a good time to drop a few bales of hay off of a few bridges.  ;)
