The Cowlitz River currently has 3 major hydroelectric dams, with several small-scale hydropower and sediment retention structures within the Cowlitz Basin.
The Cowlitz Falls Project is a 70 megawatthydroelectric dam that was constructed in the early 1990s and completed in 1994. The dam is 140 feet (43m) high and 700 feet (210m) wide. The Cowlitz Falls Project produces on average 260 gigawatthours annually for Lewis County PUD. Its reservoir, Lake Scanewa, is located at the confluence of the Cowlitz and Cispus Rivers downstream of Randle.
Me and my fishing buddy Brian hit the Cowlitz River in Mike's boat in search of Steelhead and possibly a Spring Chinook. The river was not as crowded as usual and we did manage to land one huge Steelhead buck. Weighed in at a whopping 14lbs 12oz. Another awesome day with friends doing what we love to do, FISH!

Springer Fishing The Cowlitz River Down By The Confluence Of The Toutle River
The sandy island at the confluence of the Cowlitz River and the Toutle River is something most people don't get to see. In some areas the sand island is fluid, almost floating between the current of both rivers. It is so wet and thick in some spots it is like standing in quick sand on a moving island of sand.
The weather was beautiful so I ventured down south to explore an area of the river I have not seen in many years. The scenery is gorgeous and this segment of river that stretches for a a few miles is very quiet with only a few houses spread out along its winding banks. I also ran into another Youtuber who fishes this area frequently. While #fishing for #chinook and #steelheadfishing I tend to ramble about everything that pops into my head. My dad always told me I talk to hear my lip...

Cowlitz River Bank Fishing
I hit the Cowlitz River for a few hours bank fishing with drift gear, chilled out with my beautiful wife, mowed the lawn, spent time with Ruger our dog, and sat in my tree stand for several hours enjoying the peace and tranquility.

Fishing at the BARRIER DAM on the Cowlitz River.
I had a couple hours to kill before dark so instead of cleaning up debris as planned, I launched the boat and headed up to the Barrier Dam to see if a #steelhead or Spring Chinook wanted to play. There was only one other boat there and not too long thereafter, I was #fishing in solitude. I bobber dogged a single soft bead on one rod and a double soft bead on another.
After a few drifts I switched to pulling plugs on one rod and a diver with Coon Shrimp on the other. The Brads diver setup had a spin and glow above a double hook rig to a Coon Shrimp and the plug rod was set up with a 3.5 Mag Lip.
The following day I headed down south to the Toutle River area and ran into another Youtuber in search of Spring Chinook. That video will be finished soon. Stay Tuned.

Washington Car Thief Crashes Into the Cowlitz River
Exciting morning on the Cowlitz today. The Cowlitz Convict drove a stolen car into the river at 60mph, was rescued by a boat, and then tried to steal the boat that rescued him by trying to punch the captain, but the captain had something else in mind. Took the cops about an hour to find the guy in the bushes, but they got him. Crazy day.

My dad always told me I talk to hear my lips flap. He may have been right.
On the island while eating lunch a 6' #sturgeon jumped clean out of the water in the background. I didn't learn until I was editing the video that camera #2 was not turned on.
