Camp 8 p.m. Varsity conditioning camp will be from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Registration for the camp will take place at the equipment shed next to the practice field behind the auxiliary gym on the first day of camp, 30 minutes prior to each session. Participants will learn foot- ball skills fundamentals, warm- ups and drills, tailored for each grade level. Varsity players will be on hand, along with Siuslaw coaches, to work with campers at each session. At the end of camp, partici- pants will receive a free foot- ball and camp T-shirt. “It’s something we look for- ward to each year,” said Dodson. “It’s a great way to start off the fall season and share the Siuslaw experience with our youth.” New this year is the ability to follow the Vikings with a spe- cial phone app that includes a team schedule and more. The app can be found online in most app stores by searching for Siuslaw or Viking football.

A few anglers have been catching yellow perch from the fishing dock at the County Boat Ramp and near the edge of the weedlines. A worm or piece of cut bait fished near the bottom works well for catching yellow perch. the Triangle and South jetty has been successful. Perch fishing has been productive in the bay, and it was reported that good size striped perch were being caught along the jetty.

New fish will continually be mov- ing into the river through the summer with peak numbers typically in July. River flows are much lower than normal for this time of year so think small and subtle presentations. Typical steelhead tactics apply such as bobber and jig/bait, or casting spoons or spinners. Cutthroat trout are now also open to harvest and can be found throughout the main stem river and many large trib- utaries. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, Chinook, cutthroat Spring Chinook fishing is slow in the low clearwater. Summer steelhead fishing is slow also. Fishing for cut- throat trout should be fair.

The best fishing has been around the slack tides.

The bag limit is two salmon per day, and a minimum size for Chinook salmon at 24 inches or larger and a minimum size for coho salmon at 16 inches or larger. Fishing for chinook from Bandon to Winchester Bay has been slow. Fishing for coho has been decent but only about a third of the coho caught were fin-clipped. Tuna fishing along the south coast has been very slow. There have been a couple reports from Charleston of tuna caught 20-30 miles off shore but in very low num- bers.
