Fall Chinook fishing on the
Siletz river/bay opened Aug. 1,
a few fish are being caught but
it has been slow. Expect num-

marker sign approximately
1,200 feet above Ojalla bridge
until Oct. 7.

version.
Th e Warriors responded,
scoring with 1 second left in
the period for a 50-42 lead —
and what proved to be the fi nal
score.
Friday, the Sailors will fi nish
the regular season at Elkton,
beginning at 7 p.m.
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
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
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 tech-
niques include trolling herring/
spinners and bobber 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
Trout fishing is open in
streams and river. Fishing is
restricted to artificial flies and
lures, May 22- Aug 31.
COOS RIVER BASIN:
Dungeness crab, bay clams,
rockfish, trout, salmon
Streams and rivers are open
to trout fishing. Trout fishing
in streams and rivers is slow to
due to low water conditions.
Anglers can use only artificial
flies and lures in streams above
tidewater. The daily limit for
trout in streams is 2 fish per
day and they must be 8-inches
or longer.
Through Sept. 30, salmon
anglers with a two-rod valida-
tion will be able to use rods
while fishing for Chinook
salmon and hatchery Coho
salmon in Coos Bay.
Recreational fishing for bot-
tomfish is open in the ocean
along with bays and estuaries.
The daily bag limit for
marine fish is 4, plus 2 lingcod.
The retention of cabezon is no
longer allowed for the rest of
the year. Fishing for rockfish
and greenling inside Coos Bay
near the north jetty and other
submerged rock structures has
been spotty this past week
with good fishing one day and
poor fishing the next.
TENMILE LAKES: Trout,
warmwater species, largemouth
bass
Trout fishing on Tenmile
Lakes has slowed down with
the best fishing is in the early
mornings.
Anglers should focus on
fishing in deeper water.
Fishing for largemouth bass
has been good with the best
fishing in the early mornings
or late evenings. Bass are hit-
ting top-water lures in the low
light conditions and anglers
are switching to plastics and
deeper water.
