However, it was the per- formance of freshman Rylee Colton that helped put the Vikings on top by running a Fishing from 1B Sea-run cutthroat will begin entering the lower river later this month and into the fall. These fish are very aggressive, respond well to flies and lures, and can be up to 20-inches long. SALMON RIVER: Cutthroat trout, fall Chinook Fall Chinook fishing on the Salmon river/bay opened Aug. 1, expect numbers of fall Chinook entering the bays and estuaries to increase later in the month and into September. Best techniques include troll- ing herring/spinners and bob- ber fishing with bait. SILETZ RIVER: Steelhead, cutthroat trout, fall Chinook Fall Chinook fishing on the Siletz river/bay opened Aug. 1, a few fish are being caught but it has been slow. Expect num- bers of fall Chinook entering the bays and estuaries to increase later in the month and into September. Best tech- personal best of 21:35.30 for 15th place. Her time helped earn a team score of 28 points — nearly 30 points better than second-place team Philomath with 57 points. Sky-Em competitor Cottage Grove was third place with 79 points, followed by Gladstone niques include trolling her- ring/spinners and bobber fish- ing with bait. • Note: Salmon fishing in the Siletz river opened above the marker sign approximately 1,200 feet above Ojalla bridge on Oct. 7. Summer steelhead are in the river. Fishing has begun to slow down as stream flows decrease and water tempera- tures increase in the gorge. Early mornings or late eve- nings provide the best oppor- tunity to catch these fish. The fishing will improve when we get some cooler weather or a little bit of rain to “stir” things up a bit. Casting spinners, drifting bait or using a bobber and jig can be effective. Sea-run cutthroat will begin entering the lower river later this month and into the fall. These fish are very aggressive, respond well to flies and lures, and can be up to 20-inches long. Trout fishing is open in (99), Newport (104), Cascade (159) and Waldport (163). In the boys race, junior Brendon Jensen was second overall in 16:58.7, followed by fellow junior Jonah Jarman in 17:38.50 for eighth place. Sophomore Ryan Jennings ran a PR time of 18:06.4 to take streams and river. • Note: The 3.5-mile bridge (aka Steel Bridge) in the Siletz gorge is open to motorized vehicles but is only open to public vehicles on the week- end. Anglers can walk/bike in the road during the weekdays. If anglers do walk in they can park at the one-mile gate and start from there. WILSON RIVER: Steelhead, trout Summer steelhead are pres- ent, but it looks like numbers are down a little this year. There are steelhead sporadical- ly throughout the system. Low clear water and warm water temperatures can make fishing for summer steelhead chal- lenging, but there can be some good action. 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. Warm water temperatures can stress fish and increase 15th place, and freshman Chad Hughes was 26th in 18:35.6. Sophomore Jaxson Jensen ran a time of 19:02.0 for 37th place to fi nish out scoring for Siuslaw. Newport took the team title with a score of 63. Philomath was second overall (70), fol- hooking mortality, so anglers are encouraged to avoid catch- and-release fishing during the heat of the day. Sea run cutthroat are in the tidewater areas and beginning to move upstream. We’ve had reports of the fishing for them being good this summer. Spinners or flies are good bets for success. YAQUINA RIVER: Cutthroat trout, fall Chinook Fall Chinook fishing on the Yaquina river/bay opened Aug. 1, fishing has been slow so far. Expect numbers of fall Chinook entering the bays and estuaries to increase later in the month and into September. Best techniques include troll- ing herring/spinners and bob- ber fishing with bait. Sea-run cutthroat will begin entering the lower river later this month and into the fall. These fish are very aggressive, respond well to flies and lures, and can be up to 20-inches long.
