Green Fork of the Toutle River
 

Years ago, when I lived nearby, I fly fished for (and once in a blue
moon caught) steelhead in this lovely river.

When St. Helen's blew, it filled the river with mud, silt, and
debris. By the time I had left, it was a dead, nothing place.

Passed through the area yesterday. Stopped at the WA state run
visitor center and asked about the river. The blondes there had to
look at a map to see there was such a place.

So........for those who live in the area......

Is the Green fishable again? Does it get a run?

Thanx

oz, sitting in a Sears lot in Abderdeen, waiting for SO to buy a
pantsuit for wear on the "wet side" of the state.

Geez. Women! If they didn't have orifices for receiving your
bounteous offerings they'd be thoroughly useless.....ainna?

who supposes that if it's wet.....it's fishable.

Sorry I didn't pick up on your inquiry sooner; ive been out in E. Wa.,
working on trees, property lines, etc and am mostly not net-able.

Ive never fished the Green fork and frankly have not been back to the
Toutle since St Helens erupted. Did see this site via Google and the
Green is a teaser all right.

The flowers on the Palouse and the high desert steppe are incredible
this year.

Its "Aberdeen," I could understand Hoquim maybe, but "Abderdeen," (?)
come on. ;-))
