Im hoping to hit the river a couple times this year.

haven't seen it since last season at ross, but the upper skagit is still very high with few pools. vis was prety good but that was up high.

Ross lake is high and the river has 2'-3' of visibility, most of the Canadian part of the lake id dirty. I was there on Saturday and fished all around the the grass patches, the bows and cutthroat were taking minnow/redside shiner patterns.
