Coastal Streams Should Be 'Good? for Weekend
Tbm coastal- and valley streams en the open list should be In
feed condition ever the week end. They were clearing and drop
ping fast by last T.esday when we took a trip to the Nestacca.
. The river was; still a eenple of feet high for "Just right" eondl
tiens bat a few nice fish wee taken and Mrs. Goin' After Tm
wiped year fishing editor's eye as usual. Have to keep her happy.
She eaaght a pair of steelhead, one ef which was a bright fish
evidently part ef the early April ran. The ether was a raeer and
was returned unharmed, so It could make Its return to the sea
and cease la again next winter a much larger specimen.
Talked with F. H. Sumner, game commish man at Sand Lake,
Ore., who was taking a creel census on the Nestucca. Sumner stated
that although not many fish were taken from there over the week end,
those that were caught were of good size. Some of them hit the 20
Inch mark. We took one 18 incher with the rest of the bag running
from 10 to 12 inches. The Ysquina was good on Saturday but turned
sour on Sunday when the water clouded up. Some very large cut
throat were taken near Elk City on the trolL j
Steelies Were Getting Into the Act Too Much
Five rivers la the Alsea area produced some alee catches oa
Saturday and some of the boys complained about losing too much
gear oa steelhead. Barely do we hear of aa angler complaining
because the fish are too big but such was the ease with some of
the Five stivers anglers. They, wanted trout and the steelhead
would act leave them alone. Kept Using their outfits before the
trout had a chance. '
Coast fishing should remain good until about the middle of May
when it can be buttoned up until the return of the cutthroat in late
July. Take a boy or girl fishing, and good luck.
