DSR Fishing Report for 10 September 2026:

NOTICES:

***On Friday, September 4^th in the late afternoon or early evening one of our guests lost something of high value here at the DSR.  If this applies to you, please call us at your earliest convenience. ***

A wallet belonging to Derek Hedmeck was turned in today, by another guest; it may be recovered at the ticket booth lost and found for a period of 30 days maximum.

REPORT:

Although we didn’t get as much rain as hoped for, it certainly seemed to help with our guests’ fishing success today (possibly the strong Westerly winds as well).  Fishing was substantially better today than the previous days, listed as good to excellent with Kings, (many well over 20lbs), along with a handful of Cohos and Browns also. Our guest volume would be best described as moderate in the morning hours, thinning out to low in the afternoon.

Pictured below is Scott with a big King.  Scott was fishing with Brian Ferman of ‘High Hook Guide Service’

A reminder that, effective this season, we are asking that all categories of guests check-out with us, either in-person at the Welcome Center, telephonically, or with River Patrol at other access points (e.g., Black Hole, estuary, lodge guest parking) when they leave the run for the day; this will enable us to more effectively monitor and control the number of anglers on the run, in order to meet both the spirit and intent of our daily angler limit.
