There is no other place to go see a big light display on the central Oregon coast, and you can simultane- ously help stock the shelves of our local food bank,” said Lance Beck, Director of Marketing at the aquarium. This year’s Sea of Lights is presented by Walmart. Customers that spend over $100 at Walmart’s Newport location receive a voucher for one free admission to Sea of Lights at the aquarium. Offer valid while supplies last and certain dates are sub- ject to blackout. See store for details. Attendees using a voucher are encouraged, but not required, to make a food or toy donation. Join in the merriment at the Oregon Coast Aquarium, 2820 SE Ferry Slip Road, in Newport. The aquarium is open every day, except Dec. 25, this winter from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information visit www.aquarium.org or call 541- 867-3474. Fishing reminded that from Knight Park boat ramp to Sulphur Creek through Dec. 31, angling is restricted to single point hook metal lures, fly angling, or salmon bobber angling. SILETZ RIVER: Steelhead, Chinook The Siletz River and bay is open for Chinook salmon. Fishing is slow. Fish are throughout the bay and river. Trolling herring in the lower bay is an effective technique. Eggs and bobber or drifting eggs can be produc- tive in the upper bay and river as the season progresses. Consult the regulations for changes in deadline locations through the season. Steelhead fishing is slow. Casting spinners, drifting bait or using a bobber and jig can be effective. For cutthroat trout, casting small spinners, spoons or fly fishing streamers or dry flies can be very effec- tive. WILSON RIVER: Chinook Fall Chinook fishing is fair on the Wilson River. The Wilson has fished well for fall Chinook this season, and although things will probably start to slow down toward the end of the month, there are still some good fish coming in. Keep an eye on the weather and River conditions. All of the usual techniques, such as bobber fishing, divers and bait, and back bouncing should be effective. Although it’s still a little early, Thanksgiving is time to start thinking about winter steelhead on the lower Wilson. This basin has some early returning hatchery fish and they should start trickling in towards the end of the month. YAQUINA RIVER: Chinook The Yaquina River and bay is open for Chinook salmon. Fishing is slow. Trolling her- ring in the lower bay is an effective technique. Eggs and bobber can be productive in the upper bay and river as the season pro- gresses. from 1C temperatures cool. There are numerous lakes in the Florence area that can provide good opportunity. Siltcoos and Tahkenitch lakes are open for wild coho until Dec. 31. Fishing has been fair to slow. Casting spinners near the weed lines and trolling plugs or spinners can be effective on fish that recently entered the lake. SIUSLAW RIVER: Chinook The Siuslaw River and bay is open for Chinook salmon. Fishing is slow. Trolling herring in the lower bay is an effective tech- nique. Eggs and bobber can be productive in the upper bay and river. ALSEA RIVER AND BAY: Licensed Bonded Insured (541) 997-6977 (541) 999-0896 P.O. Box 31,000 P.O.

Fish are throughout the bay and river. Eggs and bobber can be pro- ductive in the upper bay and river as the season progresses. Steelhead fishing is open. Fish are entering the mainstem with the first entering steel- head near the town of Alsea. Casting spinners, drifting bait or using a bobber and jig can be effective. • Open for hatchery steel- head through Dec. 31. • No fishing from a floating device upstream from Mill Creek. SALMON RIVER: Chinook The Salmon River and bay is open for Chinook salmon. The run is near the end but a few fish are still entering the system. Trolling herring in the lower bay is an effective tech- nique. Eggs and bobber 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. Anglers are COOS COUNTY LAKES PONDS: Trout AND Rainbow trout were stocked in Upper Empire, Bradley, Saunders, Powers and Butterfield lakes last month. Anglers have been catching lots of trout on Powerbait, flies, or by trolling spinners. This was the last stocking of these lakes until the spring. Trout anglers are also catch- ing trout in Eel and Tenmile lakes. Trolling wedding ring spinners tipped with a night- crawler has been really effec- tive. UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH: CLOSED The South Umpqua is now open. WINCHESTER BAY: Bottomfish, perch Fishing for bottom fish in the Triangle and South jetty has been successful. TENMILE BASIN: Trout, bass, yellow perch, coho Trout fishing in the streams of the Tenmile Basin are now closed until May 22, 2017. Trout fishing in Tenmile Lakes is open all year. There is no wild coho fish- ery in Tenmile Lakes this fall. Largemouth bass fishing has been decent over the past couple weeks. Anglers are catching bass near structure or on the deep end of the weed lines using spinner baits, jigs, or rubber worms. Fishing for yellow perch has picked up in Tenmile Lakes. Anglers have been catching a few yellow perch measuring 14 to 15-inches long. Worms fished near the lake bottom work very well for catching yellow perch. Anglers should fish in water depths of 15 feet or deeper to consistently find the bigger yellow perch.
