Unfortunately, it proved to be about as close as Siuslaw would get to sink- ing the undefeated Pirates (6-0). In the opening period, Siuslaw was able to hold Marshfield to just 9 points, rallying from a 2-9 deficit on shooting from seniors Kyle King and Jake Hickson, along with a 3-pointer from junior Dylan Wynn at the buzzer to cut P IRATES the Pirates’ lead to 9-6 heading into the second quarter. The Vikings’ defense continued to limit the Pirates to single-shot opportu- nities through the first half of the quar- ter as King, Hickson, Rollin and senior Jared Brandt worked the glass.

T URN IN YOUR C OMBINED A NGLING T AG Even if you didn’t har- vest a salmon, steelhead, sturgeon or halibut in 2018. ODFW Biologists use this data to better man- age these fisheries. Anglers can use this data to see where fish have been caught over the years. Tags can be turned in to any POS agent or at any ODFW office located throughout the state. The tags also can be mailed to any ODFW office. W INTER STEELHEAD : WATER DEPENDENT This time of year, water conditions for winter steel- head fishing can vacillate between too low and clear, and too high and muddy. Successful anglers will: 1) adjust their gear and tackle for current condi- tions, and/or 2) be ready to hit the water when water condi- tions improve — usually once water levels start to drop after a good rain.
