SIUSLAW RIVER: The river basin is closed to all fishing above the head of tide and will reopen for cut- throat trout fishing on May 22. ALSEA RIVER: Steelhead Winter steelhead fishing is slow. This time of year does tend to be dominated by more wild fish and post spawn run backs. Casting spinners / spoons, floating bait or a jig, or bouncing bottom with an egg pattern are good options. SALMON RIVER: The river basin is closed to all fishing above the head of tide and will reopen for cut- throat trout fishing on May 22. SILETZ RIVER: Steelhead Winter steelhead fishing is slow. This time of year is typi- cally dominated by mostly wild fish. Side drifting, bounc- ing bottom or bobber fishing can be productive. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, Chinook Steelhead angling has slowed in the low clear water. Scale your gear down and choose techniques that fit low water. Bobber and jigs should be an effective technique. Spring Chinook opened April 1, but fishing is generally very slow until later in the season. YAQUINA RIVER: Steelhead The river basin is closed to all fishing above the head of tide and will reopen for cut- throat trout fishing on May 22. COOS COUNTY LAKES and PONDS: Trout Trophy trout were stocked last week into Empire Lakes, Bradley Lake, and Johnson Mill Pond. Legal size trout are also stocked into Empire Lakes, Bradley Lake, Butterfield Lake, Eel Lake, Powers Pond, and Johnson Mill Pond. Fishing in the area lakes for trout has been ok with anglers having the best success using small spinners, spoons, or Powerbait. The daily trout bag limit in these lakes is five trout per day with only one trout over 20 inches. TENMILE BASIN: Trout, steelhead, bass Streams in the Tenmile Basin are now closed for trout fishing until May 22. Tenmile Lakes is open all year for trout but trout fishing has been slow.

In the Tenmile Basin 1 additional hatchery steelhead may be retained per day for a total aggregate of 3 adult fish harvested daily. Largemouth bass fishing has been a little slow in Tenmile Lakes but should pick up as the weather and water temper- atures warm up. Bass will be biting on slower retrieved baits like jigs, jerkbaits, and spin- nerbaits. UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH: Steelhead The South Umpqua is cur- rently open to adipose fin- clipped steelhead harvest, and winter steelhead fishing will improve as water levels recede. There are still excellent hatchery steelhead harvest opportunities on the South Umpqua especially around Stanton Park in Canyonville. WINCHESTER BAY: Bottomfish, perch Fishing for bottomfish in the Triangle and South jetty has been successful. PACIFIC OCEAN and BEACHES: Bottomfish, Dungeness crab, surf perch Recreational harvest of crab is open along the entire Oregon Coast. It is still recom- mended you discard the crab viscera (guts/butter) before cooking. A few anglers fishing the beaches near Coos Bay have been catching redtail surf perch. The ocean has been very rough lately so picking days with lower swells is key to catching fish. Sand shrimp or Berkley Gulp sand worms have been working the best for bait. Recreational ocean salmon fishing from Cape Falcon to Humbug Mt. runs through April 30. The season is open for all salmon except coho salmon. Anglers are allowed two salmon per day with a mini- mum size for Chinook at 24 inches or larger. A salmon season from May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2017 is currently being developed. Fishing for bottom fish is closed outside of a line approximating the 30-fathom curve. The marine fish daily bag limit is seven fish and a sepa- rate daily limit for lingcod (two).

This season is open for all salmon except coho salmon, with a bag limit of two salmon per day, and minimum sizes for Chinook at 24 inches or larger, and steel- head at 20 inches or larger. Anglers are restricted to no more than two single point barbless hooks when fishing for salmon, and when fishing for any other species if a salmon is on board the vessel. B OTTOM F ISHING During safe weather win- dows, spring is a great time for bottom fishing. This past week was moderately successful for many central coast bottom fishers, particularly charter vessels.

Just a reminder to anglers: Groundfish (bottomfish) is open only inside of the 30- fathom management line (through September). Lingcod move closer to shore in spring to lay large egg masses, which are guarded by males. To catch lingcod, try a white plastic grub on a lead jig head in rocky areas when the tide is not running fast. There’s a new rockfish on the block. Deacon rockfish is a newly identified species that was formerly referred to as the solid version of blue rockfish. What does that mean for you? Nothing in 2016. Every rule that refers to blue rockfish (like the daily bag limit of 3) now applies to blue rockfish and deacon rockfish combined. Cabezon retention is prohib- ited January-June; this is an annual seasonal closure. 9- AND 18-H OLE P LAY G AME : T HROW O NE O UT L OW N ET 1 ST : B EA M C C ULLOCH — 22 K.P. #4 T ERRI P ENNINGTON 2 ND : C AROL B ARCUS — 27 K.P. #8 C AROL B ARCUS 3 RD : J ULIE R IPLEY — 27 A PRIL 19, 2016 9-H OLE P LAY G AME : O DD -O R -E VEN L OW N ET 1.
