SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 2020 | 3B Fishing from 1B NOTE: The port of Alsea boat launch in Waldport will be closed until Nov. 1 and possibly longer. The closure will be for new construction and maintenance at the boat ramp and adjacent facili- ties. Please contact the Port of Alsea with any questions. Reminder — The dead- line for salmon fishing on the Alsea River is River Edge boat ramp located at river mile 28. This is relatively low in the system and is well below Fall Creek and the popular steelhead bank access on the N. Fk. of the Alsea River. Know where you are on the river before you start to fish for fall Chinook. Fall Chinook fishing continues to be slow on the Alsea River as fish are staging waiting for the next rain event. The fore- casted rain this week should increase river levels and get fishing moving upriver heading to the spawning grounds. This will create good conditions for the tail end of the fall Chinook run on the Alsea River. Anglers are reminded that due to low forecasted returns for the 2020 sea- son bag limits have been reduced. The bag limit for the Alsea River is 1 wild A weekly roundup of shopping, savings and doings around town.

Cutthroat trout fishing closed for the season on Oct. 31. Last updated 11/4/20. SALMON RIVER: Fall Chinook Fall Chinook fishing continues to be slow on the Salmon River with the low and clear condi-tions. The forecasted rain this week will stir things up, get fish moving again, and create better conditions for fall Chinook fishing. Cutthroat trout fishing closed for the season on Oct. 31. NOTE: Reminder, the Salmon River hatchery remains closed to walk in anglers. Anglers can use access points upstream and downstream of the hatchery to access those traditional fishing loca- tions. Last updated 11/4/20. SILETZ RIVER: Summer steelhead, fall Chinook Summer steelhead fish- ing continues to be slow but there is still opportu- nity to catch summer steelhead through the month of November. Fall Chinook fishing remains steady on the Siletz River. There are fish staging in the upper estu- ary and lower river wait- ing for rain to move upriver. The forecasted rain this week will have these fish on the move and create good conditions for the tail end of the fall Chinook run on the Siletz. Due to low forecasted returns for the 2020 sea- son bag limits have been reduced. The bag limit for the Siletz River is 1 wild chinook per day and 5 per year for the 2020 season. Cutthroat trout fishing closed for the season on Oct. 31. The 4-mile bridge (aka Steel Bridge) in the Siletz gorge is open to motorized vehicles on the weekends only. Anglers can walk/ bike in the road during the weekdays. There is a park- ing area located at the 1-mile gate where anglers can walk/bike upstream from there. Last updated 11/4/20. WILSON RIVER: Chinook, steelhead Fall Chinook fishing slowed on the Wilson last week, but this week’s rains should bump the river up enough to bring in some new fish and get holding fish back on the move. Fishing should pick up aft the next storm passes and river levels recede. Last updated 11/11/20 Above Jordan Creek, the Wilson River is closed to all salmon angling (includ- ing catch and release). Steelhead fishing is open in the upper river, but anglers may not target salmon. TENMILE LAKES: Trout, warmwater species, largemouth bass Largemouth bass can be found around any sub- merged wood and can be caught on spinner-baits, jigs, or crankbaits. As the water temperatures con- tinue to cool down, bass will move into deep water for the winter. Yellow perch fishing continues to be very good for anglers fishing from a boat or fishing from a dock this past week. Yellow perch have been in 15-20 feet of water and are biting on small jigs or a worm on a hook. If you fish and area for 10-15 minutes without a bite, it’s time to move to another location. The wild coho fishery is open on Tenmile Lake through Dec. 31. Anglers are allowed to harvest 1 wild coho per day and 5 for the season in aggregate with Siltcoos and Tahkenitch lakes. The Tenmile Lake level is 6.4 ft at the outlet, which is still too low to allow a decent number of coho to enter the lakes. Last updated 11/11/20. UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH: CLOSED Little If Siuslaw and Mapleton high school athletes are allowed to participate in the 2021 winter and spring sports, I hope the parents will be aware of the pres- sure all coaches have. Th e responsibilities of a coach in the upcoming seasons will require them to make decisions about players in a very shorter period of time. Coaches and athletes will both need the support and understanding when decisions are made for playing time — for com- petitive reasons as well as safety reasons. from 1B directed or infl uenced to play a specifi c player. A parents’ viewpoint is sometimes clouded by lis- tening to their athlete and the love they have for their athlete.
