Not much opportunity for steelhead on the N. Fork Santiam. The Chinook are starting to run though and that could be an option. For steelhead, there have been only 11 hatchery fish at Lower Bennett Dam but 387 wild. You could always run up to Detroit and fish for those trophy trout they have been stocking.
