Record steelhead catch logged on Columbia

FISHING -- Anglers on the lower Columbia records are setting records with the number of steelhead they're catching on the lower Columbia, according to a detailed report by Northwest Sportsman.

It's not clear whether that's a good omen or a bad one for upstream anglers waiting for those fish to head up the Snake and arrive above Lower Granite Dam.  But I can tell you that anglers are catching steelhead in the Clearwater.  Game on.
