Sundstrom, a Deadwood resident and Mapleton High School graduate who earned a masters degree in forest resources from Oregon State University in 2009, dedicated much of his time to the watershed over the years before a tragic hit-and-run accident took his life at age 34 two years ago. As an intern with the SWC in 2006, Sundstrom began the Salmon Run 5K as a fund raiser for its watershed pro- grams, particularly its summer camps See RUN 2B Hole-in-one could win new Mustang this weekend If a shout goes up at Ocean Dunes on Saturday, Aug. 5, it could echo all the way to Bay Street — because it could mean that someone hit a hole-in-one on the eighth hole. If that happens, one lucky golfer at Rotary’s eighth annual Cool at the Coast golf tournament will be the proud owner of a brand new 2017 Mustang. The last hole-in-one at Ocean Dunes occured May 29, according to course manager Bob Rannow. So it does hap- pen, with or without the Mustang incentive. That prize, sponsored by Three Rivers Casino Resort, is just one of many available at this year’s tourna- ment. Other hole-in-one prizes await on the fourth, 12th and 16th holes including a flat-screen TV and a Visa gift card. There are also trip prize drawings. Tickets are already on sale and will be available at the tournament. Winning ticket holders will enjoy either a week’s getaway at San Diego Country Estates or a two-night stay with a round of golf See COOL 2B Olalla Reservoir has been stocked with over 50 surplus summer steelhead from the Siletz Falls trap, so far this season. These fish get fairly active in the lake and offer a unique fishing experience. Once in the lake they are considered “trout” and do not require a Combined Angling Tag. Anglers are reminded, however, that only one trout per day over 20 inch- es may be retained, and these fish will almost all be in that size range. Mid Coast lakes been stocked with trout through- out the spring. Trout stock- ing is over until the fall but there still should be fish around to catch. Water temps are great and fish should be hungry, so go catch them. SIUSLAW RIVER: Trout Trout season is open and there should be some nice cutthroat around. Remember the limit on streams and rivers is two per day over 8-inches. ALSEA RIVER: Trout Trout season is open and there should be some nice cutthroat around. Remember the limit on streams and rivers is two per day over 8-inches. SALMON RIVER: Trout Trout season is openand there should be some nice cutthroat around. Remember the limit on streams and rivers is two per day over 8-inches. SILETZ RIVER: Steelhead, Chinook, trout The Siletz River opened for wild Chinook on April 1 (1 per day and 2 per sea- son). Spring Chinook and summer steelhead are being caught, and fishing should continue to improve. Recycling hatch- ery summer steelhead from the Siletz Falls trap has ended for the season. Casting spinners, drifting bait or using a bobber and jig can be effective. Trout is season open. Remember the limit on streams and rivers is two per day over 8-inches. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, Spring Chinook, trout Spring Chinook fishing has been slow on the Wilson. Summer steelhead fish- ing has picked up a bit on See FISHING 2B THIS IS THE BEST LOT CLOSE TO THE BEACH. Electrical meter in! Water meter in! Sand filter installed!
