Chinook fishing pressure was greatly reduced this week due to the closure from the wooden power lines to Priest Rapids Dam. All fishing was reduced to the area from Ringold to the Tri-Cities. Fish were still being caught but quality is beginning to decline. This will be the final Chinook creel report due to the start of the stream survey beginning on Nov. 1.
