Was thinking about making a trip to Leavenworth for a New Year's holiday get away. Will be staying right on the Wenatchee River. Was wondering what species will be in the system.

In reading the regulations it's saying that retention for whitefish starts December 1st.....a maximum quantity of 15 whitefish may be retained. All other species are statewide regulations and rules. Are trout plentiful to catch at this time around in the year (non sea going residential trout)?

Ok maybe whitefish are still good to go then. U might want to look at the emergency closures though as far as steelhead go. and ive heard the trout fishing can be good up the icicle in leavenworth.
