solid serving from junior Olivia
Nicol. After exchanging points
with the Warriors, the Sailors
brought sophomore Alexis
Gierke to the service line, where
she delivered the next seven
points — five of which were
unanswered aces.
Up 12-7, Mapleton held at
least a four-point lead for much
of the first set. But late in the
game, the Sailors’ 19-15 lead
dwindled as the Warriors took
advantage of errors to tie the
game at 19, then 20 and 21 before
taking their first lead at 21-20.
From there, Siletz allowed
Mapleton only one more point
before taking the first set, 25-21.
In game two, the Sailors once
again took the lead, this time on a
pair of aces from freshman
Alyssa Richards. Like the first
game, the Sailors held a slim lead
for the first several points. But
this time, the Warriors tied the The Sailors gather after a timeout late in the third set against Siletz.

SIUSLAW RIVER: Chinook,
coho, cutthroat trout
Fall Chinook fishing is pro-
ducing fair to good results
from the lower bay up to
Cushman with fair numbers of
fish starting to push up to the
Mapleton area. Trolling her-
ring, spinners or bobber fish-
ing can all be productive.
The wild coho fishery is
open through Oct. 15 with a
daily bag limit of 1 adult coho
and seasonal limit of 2 adult
coho (in aggregate with other
areas with the same bag limit).
The lower bay up to the North
Fork confluence typically pro-
duces the best results early in
the season. Lake Creek will
not open for wild coho in
2015.
The cutthroat trout fishery is
fair for sea runs in the lower
reaches of the river and in
upper tide water. Fishing dur-
ing the early mornings or near
the larger tributaries is the
most productive.
ALSEA RIVER: Chinook,
coho, cutthroat trout
The fall Chinook fishery is
producing fair to good results
for both bank and boat anglers.

bay up to the head of tide.
Trolling, casting lures or bob-
ber fishing are all producing
depending on the section and
conditions.
Bank fishing near the Hwy.
101 bridge or up at the newly
opened Don Lindly Park (MP
7 on Hwy. 34) can be good for
both Chinook and coho.
The wild coho fishery is
under way and will continue
through Oct. 15. The daily bag
limit of 1 adult coho and sea-
sonal limit of 2 adult coho (in
aggregate with other areas
with the same bag limit). The
lower bay typically produces
the best results early in the
season.
Cutthroat trout fishing is fair
in the lower mainstem below
the confluence with Five
Rivers.
With the low and warm
river conditions the best
opportunities will be in the
early morning when water
temperatures are the coolest.
Small spinners are typically
productive as wells as small
spoons or fly fishing with
nymphs or streamers.
SALMON RIVER: Chinook,
cutthroat trout
The fall Chinook fishery is
producing well for both boat
and bank anglers in tide water.
Trolling, casting lures or bob-
ber fishing through the high
slack tide tends to be the most
productive.
Cutthroat trout fishing from
upper tide water through the
lower river can be effective
during the early mornings with
sea runs moving through this
time of year.
SILETZ RIVER: Chinook,
coho, steelhead, cutthroat trout
The fall Chinook fishery has
been producing fair to good
results in the lower bay up to
the Chinook Bend area.
Chinook can be found
through the head of tide but
still in small numbers. Trolling
or bobber fishing through the
high slack seems to be the
most productive.
The wild coho fishery con-
tinues through Nov. 30 with a
daily bag limit of 1 adult coho
and seasonal limit of 2 adult
coho (in aggregate with other
areas with the same bag limit).
The lower bay up to Coyote
Rock typically produces the
best results early in the season.

slow. Fishing for cutthroat
trout should be fair. Use
lighter gear for best results as
the water is extremely low and
clear. Fall Chinook angling in
tidewater will improve over
the coming weeks as more fish
arrive.
YAQUINA RIVER: Chinook,
coho, cutthroat trout
Anglers are having fair to
good results for fall Chinook
from the lower bay up to the
Canyon Quarry boat launch
area. Trolling herring or spin-
ners during the incoming tide
through the high slack typical-
ly produces the best results.
Small numbers of Chinook are
also up near Elk City.
The wild coho fishery is
open through Nov. 30 with a
daily bag limit of 1 adult coho
and seasonal limit of 2 adult
coho (in aggregate with other
areas with the same bag limit).
The lower bay up to the airport
boat ramp typically produces
the best results for coho.
COOS COUNTY
LAKES/PONDS: Largemouth
bass, bluegills
Fishing for largemouth bass
and bluegills has been good in
many of the Coos County
lakes. Fishing for bass will be
best in the very early mornings
and late evenings.
Fish for bluegills around
structure like submerged logs
and weed lines.
UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH:
The South Umpqua is cur-
rently closed to all fishing
until Dec. 1.
WINCHESTER BAY:

the bay, and it was reported
that good size striped perch
were being caught along the
jetty.
Crabbing has been improv-
ing, and Chinook are still
being caught in the ocean off
of Winchester Bay and in the
lower Umpqua River.

to catch surf perch.
