The main stem is still a long way from being fishable. As of Wednesday, it was running at 11,500 cubic feet per second at the Scotia gauge. Another rise is predicted for Friday with flows reaching 22,000 cfs Saturday. It will need to get down close to 5,000 cfs before it’s fishable. The main stem Eel, from its mouth to the South Fork is open to fishing all year. From April 1 through Sept. 30, only artificial lures with barbless hooks may be used.
