Spring Chinook (Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife)
Highlights from the week's Recreation Report
Winter steelhead ain’t over yet
Though many winter steelhead runs have peaked, this can be a good time to hit the water. There are still lots of fish available, but many anglers have moved on to other opportunities, leaving more water for you.
Time to gear up for spring Chinook
Some anglers wait all year for spring Chinook season, and reports of early fish being caught are coming in from the lower Columbia, North Umpqua and lower Rogue rivers. To follow any in-season regulation changes on the Columbia River, check out the regulation update section at the top of the Columbia Zone of the Recreation Report.
