    If anyone is considering fishing Upper Crab Creek, be aware that it's in full runoff. I drove some back roads coming home from Spokane yesterday. There are some big lakes in the coulees. Lots of muddy water. Greg

    Just reading about the 2017 upper Columbia/Snake rivers steelhead forecast; the total forecast is only 130,700 the lowest in 35 years. Of even more concern is the "B" which has a forecast of 6,300 (only 1,100 wild) and 2,000 needed for hatchery brood stock. A discouraging continuing decline...

    It seems the 'bunny farm' no longer does shuttles (the only one I ever used) and neither do any of the others listed on the WFF home page. Does anyone know of someone else doing shuttles on the upper river? It's been too long since I've floated the upper river. Thanks!
