	The Hoh, Bogachiel, Sol Duc, Calawah, and Quillayute rivers on Washington's Olympic Peninsula
		The river is best known for its large run of hatchery steelhead, yet some of the largest steelhead to return to any of the Olympic Peninsula rivers return to the upper portions of this river.
		Calawah, which means "middle river", referring to the river's placement between the Sol Duc and Bogachiel rivers, begins just three or four miles northeast of Forks, Washington, where its two forks, the North and South, join.
		Formed by the confluence of the Bogachiel and Sol Duc rivers, the Quillayute, one of the shortest rivers in Washington at less than 6 miles, is totally tidal.

		The variety of regulations on these rivers is also wide - from wild kill zones on the lower reaches to selective fishery and wild release on the upper portions of many of the rivers.
		The Quillayute rivers rise up on peaks too low to maintain glaciers, however, and as a result they run clearer and clean up faster after storms than the rain forest rivers to the south.
		The hatchery fish return during December and early January, and the fishing is concentrated between the hatchery and mouth of the river at Lyendecker Park, and in the lower Calawah.

		Fly fishing the Quillayute System, which is comprised of the Sol Duc, Bogachiel and Callawah Rivers for large, wild, native steelhead.
		The Quillayute System on the famed Olympic Peninsula is made up of three major rivers, the Calawah, Bogachiel, and the Sol Duc.
		The Sol Duc River is fed by snowpack and rainfall rather than glacial run-off allowing it to clear or drop into shape well before many of the other nearby rivers do.

	Westfly--Washington Report/Forecast for September 2006
		The river opens for steelhead fishing on September 1, and there may be a few fish present in the lower reaches in Washington, and maybe even around Troy--but not too many; most of the fish will show up in late September and in October.
		The river is not huge, and intimacy is part of its appeal.
		When rivers run silty, look for steelhead to hold in somewhat slower water and along the margins of the river because there's less silt in those places.

	Outdoors Report: Anglers set to protest (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Forks area fishing guides and anglers are planning to fish the Quillayute River this afternoon in protest of the Quileute tribe's decision to continue salmon fishing after the state has closed the river to non-Indians because of extreme low flows.
		Last week, the state closed the Quillayute to all sportfishing, and closed its tributaries -- the Sol Duc, Bogachiel, Calawah and Dickey rivers -- and the Hoh River to chinook fishing.
		State fish biologists say that because of extremely low flows due to the lack of rain, chinook are not migrating upstream to their spawning grounds, and are susceptible to illegal fishing such as snagging.

	Westfly--Washington Report/Forecast for May 2006
		Tributaries and small streams often clear faster than the big rivers that they feed, and you can sometimes find good fishing in a trib when the mainstem is blown out.
		Trout and steelhead have been spawning in many rivers, so if you're wading over gravelly areas or see small rocky spots that are "cleaner" than their surroundings, you're probably on a redd.
		It's a feature of the river that the heavier flows are on the road side of the river in the canyon.

		If the proposed relocation were to occur, the demand for Coast Guard services in the Quillayute River area will continue to be met by newer and faster vessels located at Grays Harbor and Neah Bay and the existing aircraft from Port Angeles.
		The results from that analysis showed no significant difference operating with Station Quillayute River open or closed with regards to the estimated number of lives saved, cases with response time greater than 2 hours, or 90% response time (90% of the cases are responded to within this time).

		According to the study, the Quillayute River station's boats have averaged fewer than 28 search-and-rescue missions annually over the past four years.
		By contrast, the helicopters performed 75 search and rescues in 1997, 98 in 1998, 102 in 1999 and 81 in 2000 in the Strait of Juan de Fuca and north Puget Sound -- mainly because boats were unavailable from Port Angeles, Port Townsend and Neah Bay, the study said.
