Oregon Steelhead and Coho Fishing
I was just reading up on the fishing down in Oregon, and it looks like the Steelhead and Coho are the way to go if you are looking for something to fish for this weekend. According to Oregon Fish and Game:
More winter steelhead have entered area rivers with the little batch of rain last week. Look for fish numbers to be increasing in the coming week, with improving angling prospects. Streams such as Big Creek, North Fork Nehalem, Wilson River, and Nestucca River offer good opportunities.
The county boat launch at Netarts Bay is scheduled for maintenance work Dec. 15-18. The ramp will be closed during this period.
The seasonal coho fisheries on Siltcoos and Tahkenitch lakes offer an unusual opportunity to fish for wild coho salmon. Fishing is currently good as large numbers of coho have been returning to the lakes recently. The fishery is expected to remain productive over the next couple weeks. More fishing news from Oregon
Now I am unlikely to get a chance to drive down there and test out the waters, but get your butt up out of bed in the morning and get out there! If you catch something good, come back and give us a shout!
