Tomorrow is the opener, whose going?
-
It's actually from grand Coulee dam to China bend.
Lots of water to social distancing in.
Loaned out my other Columbia anchor this morning. I may wait until the middle of the week when it's better weather.
-
I was thinking the same thing. Have Wednesday and Thursday off work, and was thinking about making the run.
-
I'll go later in the week too.
-
Since I am as useful as the G in lasagna and can fish any day. I pick my battles.
Besides the launch is about 12 miles away
-
How’d you guys do last year?
-
Did they open this as a keeper seasons again?
-
If you see my boat wave.
I will be in either one of these.
-
Sorry quick Google and I just answered my own question man I’m gonna have to make plans to get up there in the next week
-
probably be up friday to sunday
-
The flow this morning is 157k cfs on the Columbia, and 17200 cfs on the kettle river and looks like real good chocolate milk.
-
3 years ago when it was muddy and full of debris we killed them in there
-
After seeing the boats think I will just wait till August, just keep catching the pike.
-
I'll head over Thursday night to dodge the ramp traffic.
-
Just got back from kettle falls. Lots of boats bobbin. Even a couple inside the trash boom. Had some heading towards town.
-
Anybody with fish on?
-
I was after plumbing parts and on a mission.
-
Only guy I know that went out ended up with zero
-
Anyone fish for surgeon around keller
-
I’ve thought about it cause it’s a lot closer to home but never have.
-
Seems pretty slow from the people I know out there
-
Slow day of fishing. Only saw one boat catch a keeper in front of us. A brother in law landed an 8' early in the morning and I landed a small one around 1800. Lot's of boats and there was roughly 10 rods from the bank where we were fishing.
-
My buddy went yesterday got two one keeper one undersized.
-
I’m out today. Not a crazy about of boats out. I’ll give a report on the fishing this evening.
-
How’s it been going out there? Any keepers
-
Heard of a a few keepers. The couple boats I run with haven’t boated any yet had a few on but that’s it. The mouth of the kettle is hot if you’d like to play bumper boats for a few shakers.
-
I'm headed up to Kettle tomorrow to give it a shot and will report back. Has anyone ever tried for sturgeon further south by Hunters?

was there the 19th and 20th and didnt see a single fish hooked in the mouth of kettle. We fished a few hours with 0 bites.
-
Drove to kettle falls for the mail today. Didn't see any boats anchored at the mouth, but there's about half a dozen in front of Nancy creek and above the bridge. Didn't see any below the bridge.
-
Fished above the bridge for about 3 hours on Friday. We caught one about 42'', and the boat in front of us lost one right at the boat around the same size.
-
canada to start dumping water.. 200-250k cfs this amount of water is a rarity

The flows are nuts this year. The Kettle river is almost 1500 cfs faster than this time last year.
The Columbia River is at 203k cfs.
-
Messing up summer salmon opener
-
Anyone hear of any reports recently? Or is everyone off chasing salmon?
-
Last Friday there were several boats on the river. Watched 3 different guides on the river. It was hot but not as hot as now. I think people are catching some fish.
-
I have been out 3 times and only hooked up once and lost it. I'm hoping to get out this weekend.
-
Fishing has been good around Kettle right now. Lots of keeper sized fish being taken. I think the spawners have returned and the fishing has improved.
-
Thank you all for the reply. May have to head up there this weekend, will post report if I do.
-
Fished all morning saw one fish caught. No bites for us.

My wife caught her second keeper last weekend and I caught my first keeper of the year. I was able to take my 82 year old uncle out and he was able to catch 3 one was a keeper. He was a fishing fool back in the day but has never caught a sturgeon. One more weekend left.
