Bruce Slightom and I fished the lower Klamath on Saturday and had a great day - landed 30 half pounders and two adults. That being said, I would say there are not alot of fish in the river yet - we just lucked into a few groups of the half pounders and they were there in numbers but not in alot of other runs. It was very smoky due to the Orleans fire.
The river has changed tremendously from the winter storms when the river was flowing at close to 500,000 cfs - I do not think Blue Creek will hold fish - all the gravel bars are gone and it is just one deep slot through there with one short section that looks like it will fish - this is a real bummer because it was nice when everyone would go staight to Blue Creek and terrorize the fish leaving much of the rest of the river to the rest of us!
