Dayum.

Hell of a trip!

Just realized who you are from the xitter. They look like Clearwater B runs. Very nice fish. Most spring steelies in the Salmon are A runs but still very fun to catch.

Correct on all fronts!

My father took us to dagger falls to see the fish migrate upstream. He said the numbers were way down. All I can remember is them jumping every 15 seconds or so.

You went at the right time. Those were likely chinook salmon. I love that place.

Oh hell, no wonder you saw so many. That's before the lower Snake Dams.
