Decided to do a bit of scouting before heading to the river when it open.

Here are some pix from my visit. The Vedder is starting to look good:

I think the Chehalis is in "deep" trouble again!!!

The Bergman island section has moved down about 150-200 feet from the last high water.

I tried to take pictures around the Keith Wilson area but the gates were closed. The water was really really high- I mean from Grass to Grass but the clarity looks good.

Spoke to a guy from Fred's and he said that he has heard of people seeing fish rising at the canal.
