Fishing
from 1B
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 spinners,
drifting bait or using a bobber
and jig can be effective. Cover
water and fish small and sim-
ple 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 effec-
tive.
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
deeper holding areas. Trout
angling should be fair.
YAQUINA RIVER: 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 AND
PONDS: Trout, warmwater fish
There are trout available for
kids in the Millicoma Pond at
the Millicoma Interpretive
Center and fishing is excellent.
Millicoma Pond is set aside
for kids fishing only and is a
great chance for them to hook
into fish. Call before traveling
to Millicoma Pond to make
sure the gates are open. The
phone number is 541-267-
2557.
Fishing for largemouth bass
is best in mornings and late
evenings. Bass will be found
in a little deeper water associ-
ated with cover, like weedlines
or other structure.
Bluegill fishing is picking
up with many fish found in or
near shallow water. Plastic
worms, shallow crankbaits,
topwater lures, and spinner
baits are good to use for bass.
Bluegills will bite on worms,
small jigs, or flies.
UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH:
Bass
Trout fishing is catch-and-
release only in the South
Umpqua and tributaries. Bass
fishing should be good with
warmer water temperatures.
TENMILE BASIN: Trout,
bass, yellow perch
Trout fishing has been slow
in Tenmile Lakes due to warm
water. Trout anglers should
fish in the deep water and fish-
ing is usually best in the morn-
ings.
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.
Fishing for yellow perch has
been slow in Tenmile Lakes.
Anglers fishing along the edge
of the weedlines are having the
best success. Worms fished
near the lake bottom work
very well for catching yellow
perch.
The water level in the lakes
is very low so boat anglers
should use caution.
only keep three blue rockfish
and one canary rockfish as part
of their daily limit and there
will be no harvest of China,
quillback, or copper rockfish.
Retention of one cabezon per
day is allowed.
Crabbing has been decent
for those crabbing from a boat
with the best crabbing near
high tide. There has been a
mixture of hard shell and soft
shell crab in the catch. It is
still recommended you discard
the crab viscera (guts/butter)
before cooking.
Recreational harvest of bay
clams remains open along the
entire Oregon coast.
Clamming is excellent during
low tides near Charleston, off
Cape Arago Highway, and
Clam Island. There are also
good places to dig clams even
on positive low tides in Coos
Bay.
NOTE: Recreational harvest
of razor clams is closed from
the north jetty of the Siuslaw
River south to the California
border due to elevated levels
of domoic acid. This includes
all beaches and all bays.
Before any shellfish harvest
trip, make sure to check the
Oregon Department of
Agriculture website for any
updates.
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,
