MID COAST LAKES:
Rainbow trout stocking
is complete along the mid
coast. Holdover trout will
be available in most lakes
through the summer.
Fishing for the various
warm water fish species is
good this time of year as
fish move to the shallows
for spawning. There are
numerous lakes in the
Florence area that can pro-
vide good opportunity.

STEP to share essential salmon fishing tips tonight
Relying on his vast experience as an
angler on the Oregon coast, Ron
Caputo, president of the Salmon and
Trout Enhancement Program (STEP),
will share his 12 tips for a successful
salmon season tonight, Aug. 3, at the
monthly STEP meeting.
The club meets at 7 p.m. at the Elks’
Lodge in Florence, and the public is
invited to attend.
Caputo will also share his recipe for
brining herring as anglers ready for the
fall chinook season. Caputo has fished
the Siuslaw for many years and will
talk about his favorite fishing holes,
strategies for when and where to fish,
what to do to prepare for the fishing day
and other strategies.
Prior to his talk, the club will hold a
short business meeting with reports
from the treasurer, recent work parties,
planned work in the fall and current

Come the night of Aug. 19, the
following athletes will be inducted
into Siuslaw’s hallowed Athletics
Hall of Fame:
Harold McClellan (1958): A
three-sport athlete, McClellan was a
standout in football, basketball and
track, leading Siuslaw on the gridiron
as a halfback with touchdown runs of
50 and 44 yards to upset undefeated
Toledo in the 1957 playoffs.
In basketball and track, McClellan
was one of the Vikings’ top scorers
his junior and senior years.
Les Conley (1965): As a junior in
1964, Conley won the 100-yard dash
in a blistering 10.2 seconds, then
placed second in the 180-yard low
hurdles in 20.2. In 1965, Conley
placed second at state in the 100-yard

fishing reports.
The STEP group is under the aus-
pices of the Oregon Department of Fish
and Wildlife.
It is an all-volunteer organization
with a mission to return fisheries to his-
toric levels through habitat restoration,
education programs and a broodstock
program for winter steelhead.
For more information, contact
Caputo at 541-997-4961.
SIUSLAW RIVER:
Cutthroat
For cutthroat trout, cast-
ing small spinners, spoons
or fly fishing streamers or
dry flies can be very effec-
tive. Angling for all species
in streams above tidewater
is restricted to artificial
flies and lures until Sept. 1.
Casting small spinners,
spoons or fly fishing
streamers or dry flies can
be very effective.
ALSEA RIVER: Cutthroat
The Alsea River is open
for cutthroat trout, casting
small spinners, spoons or
fly fishing streamers or dry
flies can be very effective.
Bait is not allowed above
the head of tide until Sept.
1.
SILETZ RIVER:
Steelhead, cutthroat
Steelhead fishing is fair.
This run typically peaks by
early July. Casting spin-
ners, drifting bait or using
a bobber and jig can be
effective. Cover water and
fish small and simple as
the river conditions are low
and clear. For cutthroat
trout, casting small spin-
ners, spoons or fly fishing
streamers or dry flies can
be very effective.
WILSON RIVER:
Steelhead, Chinook, cut-
throat
Fishing for steelhead
and spring Chinook is
slow. The water is low and
clear, so use lighter gear
and target the deeper hold-
ing areas. Trout angling
should be fair.
YAQUINA RIVER:
Cutthroat
For cutthroat trout cast-
ing small spinners, spoons
or fly fishing streamers or
dry flies can be very effec-
tive. Angling for all species
in streams above tidewater
is restricted to artificial
flies and lures until Sept. 1.
