Casting or trolling spinners or various plugs can be effective. Fishing for the various warm water fish species tends to be slower during the winter months. There are numerous lakes in the Florence area that can provide good opportunity and have both boat and bank access. SIUSLAW RIVER: Chinook, steelhead The fall Chinook fishery is very slow and basically over for the season. Any remaining fish are in spawning condition. Look for small numbers of fish to be in the lower river above the head of tide this early in the season. Casting lures or bobber fishing can be productive during low clear flows. ALSEA RIVER: Chinook, steelhead The fall Chinook fishery is very slow. Most remaining fish are actively spawning. A small number of new fish may enter the basin over the next couple weeks. Winter steelhead season has arrived. The best chances to hook a chrome steelhead at this time would be in the lower section below Five Do your part and volunteer today to help support these local non-proft organizations in our community! Rivers. Tossing spinners, or floating bait or a jig are good options during low clear flows. SALMON RIVER: Chinook, steelhead The fall Chinook fishery is very slow. Most remaining fish are actively spawning or already spawned out. Winter steelhead season tends to kick in this time of year. A small number of fish are likely in the system now and look for the numbers to steadily increase over the coming month. Casting lures, bouncing the bottom or drift- ing jigs or bait under a bobber are good techniques to consid- er. SILETZ RIVER: Chinook, steelhead The fall Chinook fishery is slow. A small number of new fish may be found in the lower river but most remaining fish are actively spawning or spawned out. The wild coho fishery is now closed for the season. Winter steelhead season is just getting underway. This time of year typically sees the first few fish entering the river. Best chances early on during lower flows will come from below the town of Siletz. Side drifting, bouncing bottom or bobber fishing can be productive. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, Chinook The river is still high. When the river drops, fall Chinook and winter steelhead will be available. Fishing should be fair to good. Anglers are reminded that the river above Jordan Creek is closed to all salmon fishing. YAQUINA RIVER: Chinook, steelhead Anglers are having very lit- tle success for fall Chinook in the upper section of tide water. Most fish are now on the spawning grounds. The winter steelhead run is now under- way. The Big Elk tends to start seeing fish this time of year in small numbers. Look for the next good rain event to get the fishery going. The wild coho fishery is now closed for the year. COOS COUNTY LAKES PONDS: Trout AND Lakes in Coos County are open all year for trout fishing. Trout will not be stocked until the spring. Some trophy trout were stocked in both Bradley and Butterfield lakes in October. Anglers have been catching some of the large tro- phy trout on small flies or slowly trolling spinners. COOS RIVER BASIN: Dungeness crab, steelhead, bay clams Steelhead have been caught in the past few days on the West Fork and East Fork Millicoma rivers along with the South Fork Coos River. Drifting eggs or fishing a jig under a bobber are effective ways to catch steelhead. Get Results...List With Tim.
