I just returned from the north Oregon Coast, near Tillamook, where friends and I spent multiple days chasing steelhead on rivers where the water levels were high and the water clarity ranged from that fishy looking steelhead green to approaching brown in color. Since we were fishing from a drift boat, our plan was to target rivers like the Wilson, Trask, Nestucca and Kilches. Not to be detoured when the water conditions were less than perfect, we simply changed our location and fishing methods to match the water conditions.
