SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, JUNE 30, 2018 | 3B Fishing Siltcoos Lagoon will not be stocked this year due to contin- ued low dissolved oxygen. Trout scheduled to be released in Siltcoos Lagoon will be diverted to Cleawox Lake. In addition, fishing for warmwater species such as bass and other panfish should improve through June as water temperatures warm and these fish get more active. Ollala Reservoir, Mercer Lake, Siltcoos Lake and Tahkenitch Lake have warm water species available. ALSEA RIVER: Cutthroat trout Trout fishing in streams and river opened May 22.

SIUSLAW RIVER : Cutthroat trout Trout fishing in streams and river opened May 22. Fishing is restricted to artificial flies and lures through Aug. 31. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, spring Chinook, trout Summer steelhead are start- ing to show up on the Wilson River, and the run will continue to improve over the next month or more. Low clear water can make fishing for summer steel- head challenging, but there can be some good action at first and last light, or on those driz- zly overcast days. Concentrate on deep pools and deeper rif- fles. Drift fishing, spinners, and flies are good choices. Light line, small presentations, and fishing the riffles and deep pools at first and last light can increase success. There are still a few spring Chinook available in the Wilson River, although num- bers will be very low, especially considering the low runs we are seeing on other basins. The North Coast Rivers opened for trout fishing May 22. There are some nice cut- throat around, and these aggressive fish can be fun to catch. Most of the rivers are restricted to artificial lures and flies above tidewater until Aug. 31, so check the regulations before you go.

The longlead- er fishery has a daily bag limit of 10 fish made of yellowtail, widow, canary, redstripe, greenstripe, silvergray, and bocaccio rockfish. No other groundfish are allowed and off- shore longleader fishing trips cannot be combined with tradi- tional bottomfish, flatfish or halibut trips. More information about a longleader setup can be found here. Salmon fishing is open from Cape Falcon to Humbug Mountain with a limit of two salmon per day and no reten- tion of coho.

For the Central Coast Subarea, if enough quota is available the All-Depth Halibut fishery will be open on July 5-7. As of June 9 there was 52 per- cent of the quota remaining. The Nearshore halibut season is open seven days a week and as of June 17 there is 84 percent of the quota remaining. For the Southern Oregon Subarea, halibut is open 7 days a week through Oct. 31 or attaining the quota of 8,982 lbs. As of June 17 there is 92 per- cent of the quota remaining. Surfperch fishing has been good when the ocean swells have been small. The best fish- ing has been on the beaches near the estuaries. Pink fin perch fishing has been good in the Umpqua estuary. Anglers are having the best luck fishing the beaches with sand shrimp or Berkley Gulp sand worms. Anglers need to be careful of rough ocean conditions and sneaker waves. And beginning July 1, the general marine bag limit (rock- fish, greenlings, etc.) will be reduced from 5 fish per day to 4 fish. This is necessary to keep total catches within annual quotas, and reduce the chance of an early closure of the recre- ational bottomfish fishery. • BOTTOM FISHING: Anglers reported having trou- ble finding fish at their usual spots, although some days seemed to have picked up some. Boats/anglers that put in the time have been able to come home with limits. Lingcod catches have been hit and miss. Reminder that as of April 1, the bottomfish fishery is restricted to inside of the 30 fathom regu- latory line. • DUNGENESS CRAB: —The entire Oregon coast is now open for recreational crab- bing. — It is still always recom- mended that crab be eviscerat- ed and the guts or butter dis-carded prior to cooking.
