We've been doing pretty well all over the river.  If you know how to fish each spot, you'll catch fish right now.  If you don't, you'll still enjoy a few hours of fishing on a beautiful river...and you might get lucky anyway.

PM me if you have any specific questions.

I've been up there below the dam several times that last few years. We camp at Beebe Bridge and go up river to check it out. Lots of boats and lots of bank guys catching fish. Looks like they are trolling in the current with flashers and bait but not sure. I may give it a try this year when we get over there. The sonar is just covered with fish below the dam so its no wonder we are seeing lots of hookups.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Bottom bouncing at the foot of Wells dam is going good right now. Night time is the best time for fishing below Wells and the best way is using a couple of glow in the dark corkies and roe.  I've got a friend that lives in Chelan and he's down there every night. He has pulled several kings already this season and reports that the boat fishermen are doing better than the shore fishermen using flashers & Brad's super baits baited with tuna off of the riggers.
