The Chetco reached flood stage over the weekend, cresting just below 60,000 cfs reports Andy Martin of Wild Rivers Fishing. “It appears to be on pace to be blown out through the weekend, but could be in shape for late-season steelhead Tuesday or Wednesday,” said Martin. “The Rogue also flooded and will likely be too high even for springers through the weekend. Expect plenty of spring salmon as it drops next week.”
