RUSSIAN RIVER IS HOT! Expect good fishing in the river until they open the Sanctuary. Then the Sanctuary will be hot (and crowded). River is amply populated by people but they seem spread out so it's not too bad. Campgrounds and parking are crowded or full. Good luck there.... Might have to do a bit of hiking to get on the river....
You are responsible for your own safety while fishing in bear country. Whether fishing, traveling to and from fishing waters, or camping, be aware of bears. Don't make it easy for bears to find food, food containers, backpacks, garbage, fish, or fish waste.
Splashing fish attract bears.
As soon as you catch a fish —
If you must must use a stringer —
If you are fishing from a boat or have accessed a bank fishing area with a boat, closely attend your catch just as you do with your fishing rod, or secure fish in the boat. Try to stay within reasonable distance from your boat in case a bear approaches.
Fish remains attract bears — Stop, chop and throw
While camping during your fishing trip make sure to keep a clean camp and to properly store items that could possibly attract bears. Dispose of trash properly in Dumpsters or bear-resistant trash containers. If you are in a remote location, dispose of trash by burning it in a campfire and then dispersing the ashes, or by storing it in a packable bear resistant trash container. Always keep food and food containers secure in your vehicle, recreational vehicle, or in a bear resistant container. Do not store them in your tent. Keep other items such as bags, backpacks, etc. stored in your vehicle, recreational vehicle, or tent.
