The Nestucca River has a wild broodstock hatchery run, meaning the hatchery steelhead here are from wild origin. As such they mimic the wild run timing which peaks now through March. This will be one on the best bets for hatchery winter steelhead for the remainder of the season. The Nestucca has been low and as a result fishing has been a little slow, although there are still fish getting caught. There was a little rain on Sunday night and Monday that caused a small bump in the river level and may have gotten some fish moving. More rain is predicted for Saturday night and Sunday and if that happens the Nestucca should fish well early next week.
