OT
On Saturday, Oct. 3, the
Boys and Girls Club fifth-
and sixth-grade tackle
football team traveled
north to Morrow Field for
a rematch with the
Newport Jr. Cubs. After
falling behind early, the
Jr. Vikings rallied back to
tie the game, powered by
two big touchdown runs
and 40-yard punt return
for a score. The defense
chipped in with two key
interceptions; one to end
the first half and one in
the end zone to force
overtime. Both teams
scored in the extra peri-
od, battling to a 30-30 tie
in over time. The Jr.
Vikings head to Waldport
tomorrow, Oct. 15, to
battle Siletz at 6 p.m.,
followed by another trip
north on Saturday, Oct.
17, to take on Toledo at 2
p.m. Their next home
game will be Saturday,
Oct. 24, against Siletz.

“Blaine has his own way of
tackling, but he definitely
wraps them up,” said Greene.

two adult coho (in aggregate
with other areas with the same
bag limit). The lower bay up
to the North Fork confluence
typically produces the best
results early in the season.
Lake Creek will not open for
created by their defense to
score eight touchdowns and the
same number of conversions.
Packebush chewed up 118
yards of offense, claiming three
touchdowns on 10 carries.
Sophomore Dominic Wells
was a double threat, catching
four passes for 79 yards and
rushing seven times for 89 yard
and three trips across the goal
line.
At runningback, junior AJ
Foster scored twice for the
Sailors, running for 201 yards
and averaging 28 yards per
carry.
“It was a good game for us as
we head into Friday,” said
Greene, whose team will host
Siletz in a game that will have
major playoff implications.
A win by the Sailors would
secure third place in their divi-
sion of the Mountain West,
advancing them to the first
round of state playoffs against
the top three teams of the
league’s eastern division.
A loss on Friday would end
their state playoff chances but
guarantee them a shot at fourth
place in a game that would
most likely be against
Mohawk.
“It’s a big one for us,” said
Greene. “It’s our Homecoming
game with a lot riding on the
outcome.”
Kickoff for Friday’s game
against the Warriors is 7 p.m.
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.
Anglers are having the best
action fishing from the lower
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.
WILSON RIVER: Steelhead,
Chinook, cutthroat
Summer steelhead fishing is
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.

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:
Bottomfish, perch
Fishing for bottomfish in 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.
Crabbing has been improv-
ing, and Chinook are still
being caught in the ocean off
of Winchester Bay and in the
lower Umpqua River.
PACIFIC OCEAN and
BEACHES: Bottomfish,
salmon, Dungeness crab, surf
perch
The ocean is open for har-
vest of Dungeness crab and
crabbing has been good out-
side of Coos Bay and
Winchester Bay.
Anglers are catching surf
perch on the area beaches like
Horsefall Beach. Fishing the
incoming tides with sand
shrimp usually works the best
to catch surf perch.
Recreational ocean salmon
season from Cape Falcon to
Humbug Mt. is open for
Chinook salmon. The non-
selective coho season closed
Sept. 30.
Fishing for Chinook in the
ocean from Bandon to
Winchester Bay has been slow.
