Fished the Cowlitz from Castle Rock to the S curves above the mouth of the Toutle 8 hrs. 2 hits/0 hookups for 4 rods. Trolled herring, spinners, and plugs. Color was good, river is stil high (9,500 cfs at Mayfield). Saw one fish caught for about 7 boats. No plunkers had fish. At least it didn't rain.

Cowlitz River Fishing Report

11/28/2014

The Coho on the Cowlitz river are still rolling. The hatchery has been consistently reporting good numbers in their traps making the Cowlitz river a good option for late run Coho fishing. Best bets are up by the dam, but still plenty of Coho through out the river.

This is the down side of the run and many of the fish have turned to the dark side but there are still some nice ones in there.

With the recent rains the action should be pretty good this weekend on the Cowlitz. Our Lunker's Guide fishing forecast for the Cowlitz is good to Great!

ITS NOT YOUR IMIGANITION...B RUN STEELHEAD ARE WAY DOWN ON THE COWLITZ AND WATER IS WAY UP SO ITS TOUGH FISHING...

EVEN THE GUIDES AREN'T DOING THAT WELL...OF COURSE THEY SAY THEY ARE KILLING THEM BUT WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IF YOU WERE TRYING TO GET SOMEONE TO GIVE YOU $200.00 PLUS FOR HALF A DAYS FISHING FOR 2 FISH.....

DRAGGING 4-5-6-7 HOOKS INTO A FISHS FACE IS THE MOST PRODUCTIVE WAY RIGHT NOW....HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SKILL...

AND THEY DON'T CARE ONE BIT IF THEY CAST OVER, UNDER, AROUND YOU IN THE RIVER TO SNAG FISH.
