SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 2016
Viks
from 1C
for that kind of emotion.”
The Billies opened with a
74-yard kickoff return for a
touchdown, then covered 62
yards in three plays on their
next possession for a quick 14-
0 lead. The Billies’ bread and
butter was on the ground, rush-
ing for 239 yards on 34 carries,
averaging almost 10 yards per
MHS
from 1C
said Crook. “And so was seeing
our scoring spread out among so
many of our players.”
Erin Michael had a pair of
Fishing
from 1C
pick up over the next several
weeks. Trolling herring in the
lower bay is an effective tech-
nique. Eggs and bobber or
drifting eggs can be productive
in the upper bay and river as
the season progresses.
SIUSLAW RIVER:
Cutthroat, Chinook
The Siuslaw River and bay
is open for Chinook salmon
through Dec. 31. Fishing is
slow but will pick up over the
next several weeks. Trolling
herring in the lower bay is an
effective technique. Eggs and
bobber or drifting eggs can be
productive in the upper bay
and river as the season pro-
gresses.
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 now open.
Casting small spinners, spoons
or fly fishing streamers or dry
flies can be very effective.

Cutthroat, Chinook
The Salmon River and bay
is open for Chinook salmon
through Dec. 31. Fishing is

attempt.
“We needed to contain their
running game and force them to
throw, which we did — just not
enough,” said Pool.
Offensively, Pool said he
saw bright spots that were
encouraging, with the Viks
claiming the three longest
drives of the night, along with
37 passing plays and 30 rush-
ing, compared to just two pass
plays and 34 rushing plays by
the Billies.
“Our offense had more plays
and more yardage, but we just
couldn’t make up for it on
defense,” said Pool. “Sticking
to the game plan is our biggest
challenge, which just comes
from a lack of experience at the
varsity level.
“But we’re getting there.”
The Vikings did score twice,
first on a nine-yard pass from
quarterback Jared Brandt to
receiver Brogan Cornish in the
second quarter, then on a 33-
yard pass to Jake Hickson late
in the third quarter.
Evan Teter made good on
both kicks to sum up the Viks
scoring for the night in a 41-14
loss to the Billies.
“We kept fighting and
showed the kind of character
that doesn’t get included in stat
books,” said Pool. “I’m proud
of them for that.”
Friday, the Vikings will host
their first game of the season
when they take on the 0-2 Cubs
of Newport.
“It’s a game we can win, and
so were the others,” said Pool.
“We’re pumped for it. We just
need to take those moments
from those previous games
when everything was clicking
together and build on them.”
Quincy Rusk led rushing for
the Viks with 69 yards on 16
carries. Brandt had 62 yards on
six caries, and Trent Reavis had
50 yards on four carries.
Receiving, Reavis had 143
yards on seven catches,
Hickson had 37 yards on three
receptions including a touch-
down, and Cornish had 20
yards on six catches, with a
touchdown.
Friday’s home game kicks
off at 7 p.m.
aces, two kills and five digs.
Alexis Gierke had four aces and
three kills, Alyssa West had two
aces, one kill and eight digs,
Bailey Messick had five digs and
one kill, Josi Hays had two aces,
three kills and five digs, Hailey
Wells had five aces, three kills
and eight digs, and Baileigh
Johnston had four aces for the
Sailors.
Against Triangle
Lake,
Mapleton fell 11-25 in the first
set, then battled back to lead for
most of the second set before los-
ing 16-25. The Lakers completed
the sweep with another 16-25 win
in the third set.
Michael led the team from the
service line with six aces, West
had 10 digs to spark the team
defensively, and Wells had three
kills, along with kills from
Gierke, West, Michael and Hays.
Johnston served up four aces.
“It was awesome to see my
athletes step up their game
against Triangle Lake,” said
Crook. “We have plenty of work
to do, but overall I’m proud with
our performance on Saturday.”
Tomorrow night, the Sailors
will be at Siletz.
First serve is at 6 p.m.
slow but will pick up over the
next several weeks Trolling
herring in the lower bay is an
effective technique. Eggs and
bobber or drifting eggs can be
productive in the upper bay
and river as the season pro-
gresses. Parking can be limited
at Knight Park during the fall
salmon return.
SILETZ RIVER: Steelhead,
cutthroat, Chinook
The Siletz River and bay is
open for Chinook salmon
through Dec. 31. Fishing is
slow but will pick up over the
next several weeks. Trolling
herring in the lower bay is an
effective technique. Eggs and
bobber or drifting eggs can be
productive in the upper bay
and river as the season pro-
gresses. Consult the regula-
tions for changes in deadline
locations through the season.
Steelhead fishing is fair.
Casting spinners, 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 spinners, spoons or fly
fishing streamers or dry flies
can be very effective.
WILSON RIVER: Steelhead,
cutthroat
Fishing for steelhead is fair.
The water is low and clear, so
use lighter gear and target the
deeper holding areas. Angling
for cutthroat should be fair to
good, sea-runs should be
throughout the system. Try
casting spinners or streamer
flies in areas with cover, or
dead drifting small presenta-
tions.
Fall Chinook season does
not open until Sept. 16, and
the river is closed to salmon
angling upstream of Jordan
Creek (RM 21.9) through Dec.
31.
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.
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.
Razor clamming is closed
south of the north jetty of the
Siuslaw River.
Recreational ocean salmon
fishing from Cape Falcon to
Humbug Mt. is open for
Chinook salmon. Anglers are
allowed two salmon per day
with a minimum size for
Chinook at 24 inches or larger.
The non-selective coho sea-
son does not open until Sept.
3.
The Nearshore Halibut sea-
son is open seven days a week
from Cape Falcon to Humbug
Mt. As of mid August, 18 per-
cent of the nearshore quota
remains. The Summer All-
Depth Halibut season is near-
ing the quota. Please monitor
the marine zone updates for
season information.
Fishing for bottom fish is
now closed outside of a line
approximating the 20-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 separate daily
limit for lingcod (two).
Anglers can only keep three
blue rockfish and one canary
rockfish as part of their daily
limit and there will be no har-
vest of China, quillback, or
copper rockfish. Anglers may
harvest one cabezon per day.
B OTTOM F ISHING : Anglers
last week did well. Charter
boats averaged four to seven
rockfish per angler and private
boats averaged two to six
rockfish per angler.
Kelp greenling and cabezon
filled out some bags. A smat-
tering of anglers brought in
one or two lingcod in some
ports. Sanddabs were landed in
Brookings; additional species
up and down the coast includ-
ed petrale sole, sand sole and
surfperch species.
T UNA : The 2016 season for
albacore tuna started earlier
than average, and it is already
looking to be a very good sea-
son.
YAQUINA RIVER:
Cutthroat, Chinook
The Yaquina River and bay
is open for Chinook salmon.
Fishing is slow but will pick
up over the next several
weeks. Trolling herring in the
lower bay is an effective tech-
nique. Eggs and bobber or
drifting eggs can be productive
in the upper bay and river as
the season progresses.
For cutthroat trout casting
small spinners, spoons or fly
fishing streamers or dry flies
can be very effective. Angling
for all species in streams is
now open.
