The Necanicum River is getting low and we need rain to improve fishing conditions and bring fresh fish into the system. There are still a few hatchery steelhead available. Boaters should use extreme caution on the Necanicum as the winter weather over the last few weeks could have brought down trees and created new boating hazards.
