SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ SATURDAY, JULY 2, 2016 Coast Gems set Newport jaunt YACHATS — If you over- indulge on Independence Day, consider walking some of it off on Tuesday, July 5, as the Yachats Coastal Gems walk Beverly Beach, a year-round event. The group meets at the Commons in Yachats by 8:55 a.m. to carpool to Newport and the Hallmark Inn. Registration in Newport is at at 9:45 a.m. Both the 5K and 10K routes include a variety of environ- ments and walking surfaces. Beach footwear on the 10K and a walking stick on both the T OURNEY 5k and 10K walk are helpful. These walks include some hills and uneven surfaces, and are not appropriate for wheel- chairs or strollers. As always, a leashed pet is welcome, but be sure to bring water and clean up materials for your pet. The walk requires a sturdy 6-foot leash, not the retractable type.

Trout angling should be fair. YAQUINA RIVER: spinners, drifting bait or using a bobber and jig can be effec- tive. Cover water and fish small and simple as the river conditions are low and clear. For cutthroat trout, casting small spinners, spoons or fly fishing streamers or dry flies can be very effective. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, Chinook, cutthroat Fishing for steelhead and spring Chinook is slow. The water is low and clear, so use lighter gear and target the “Oregon’s Own” m r y Band A h t 4 3 2 FREE CONCERT h e 234th Army Band is a unit of the Oregon Army National Guard. h e Band consists of a full Concert Band comprising 40 members, as well as smaller ensembles or Music Perfor- mance Teams (MPTs) including “Rock Steady”, our rock/pop band; “Brass Ops”, our brass band, and our woodwind/chamber ensemble “General Dischord”. Florence Events Center Cutthroat For cutthroat trout casting small spinners, spoons or fly fishing streamers or dry flies can be very effective. Angling for all species in streams above tidewater is restricted to artificial flies and lures until Sept. 1. COOS COUNTY LAKES PONDS: Trout, warmwa- AND ter fish Legal and trophy size trout were released earlier this month in Empire Lakes, and legal-size trout were put into Tenmile Lakes. This was the last trout stocking until fall. Anglers that catch a tagged trout in Empire Lakes can report the tag number to ODFW by stopping by the Charleston Office, calling 541- 888-5515, or report tags online. A few of these tags are worth a $50 gift card. Fishing in the area lakes for trout has been ok with anglers having the best success using small spinners, spoons, or garlic fla- vored 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 Angling is restricted to arti- ficial flies and lures in streams and rivers above tidewater. Tenmile Lakes is open all year for trout. Anglers have been catching rainbow trout trolling wedding ring spinners. Use of bait is allowed in lakes year round. Largemouth bass fishing has been good over the past month. Anglers are catching bass near structure or on the deep end of the weed lines using spinner baits, jigs, or rubber worms. Top water lures have been effective in the early mornings or evenings. UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH: Bass, trout Trout fishing should remain viable in cold water areas. Trout fishing is catch-and- release only in the South Umpqua and tributaries. Bass fishing should be good with warming water temperatures. WINCHESTER BAY: Bottomfish, perch Fishing for bottom fish in the Triangle and South jetty has been successful. PACIFIC OCEAN AND BEACHES: Bottomfish, Dungeness crab, surf perch, salmon, halibut 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. Anglers fishing the beaches from Coos Bay to Bandon have been catching redtail surf perch. Sand shrimp or Berkley Gulp sand worms have been working the best for bait. Surf perch fishing is usually best on the incoming tide. Recreational ocean salmon fishing from Cape Falcon to Humbug Mt. 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. The selective coho (fin-clipped) season will open June 25 with a quota of 26,000 coho. The Nearshore Halibut sea- son is open seven days a week from Cape Falcon to Humbug Mt. Fishing for bottom fish is now closed outside of a line approximating the 30-fathom curve. Fishing for black rockfish has been good from Coos Bay south to Bandon. Fishing for ling cod has been decent. The marine fish daily bag limit is seven fish and a sepa- rate daily limit for lingcod (2). Anglers can only keep 3 blue rockfish and 1 canary rockfish as part of their daily limit and there will be no harvest of China, quillback, or copper rockfish. O CEAN S ALMON The Cape Falcon to Humbug Mt. Chinook salmon recreational fishing season continues through Oct. 31. 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 steelhead at 20 inches or larger. Ocean Chinook fishing so far this season has been rela- tively slow, due to overall low effort levels. Most anglers are concentrating on bottomfish for now. Just a reminder: 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 Bottom fishing is good on both the north and south coasts last week. 715 Quince Street, Florence, OR Saturday, July 23rd, 2016 2:00pm Admission Tickets required (limit two per person) available at: Siuslaw News 148 Maple St. Banner Bank 777 Hwy. 101 Best For Hearing 2285 Hwy. 101 FLorence Events Center 715 Quince For more information, call 541-997-1994 www.eventcenter.org Sponsored by: Fri-Sat 7/1-7/2 9am-3pm 4976 Lake Dr. off ford way. 2 twin beds, lamps, mower, costume jewelry, & lots of misc. __________________ Thurs-Sun 6/30-7/3 10am-3pm 4390 Hwy 101 JULY 4TH BLOWOUT! 10% or more off all items.
