Low and clear. Rain this week may improve conditions enough for boat anglers to get on the river. This is a good time of year to run plugs as steelhead are getting pretty aggressive.
There are new license requirements to fish for winter steelhead in 2023 on south coast rivers and anglers should check the new regulation book prior to fishing.
