Winter steelhead fishing has been slow as the season is winding down. There are reports of a couple summer steelhead having been caught.
During the winter months, flow and visibility on the Sandy are greatly influenced by each passing front and change in snow levels. Colder temperatures, as well as less precipitation means this glacially fed system will not only be on the drop, but will also clear up much more quickly.
Anglers should confirm access before they go. All Metro Parks and boat ramps (including Dabney and Lewis and Clark) are now open, but may have modified operations. Check conditions at individual parks on Metro’s website. State parks and recreation areas appear open.
USGS hydrological data for March 31, shows Sandy flows near Bull Run were at 2,210 cfs with a gage height of 9.75
