FISHING REPORT FOR
THE LOCAL REGION

MID COAST LAKES
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

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

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.
