Trout fishing in streams is now closed until May 22, 2017.
Steelhead rivers in the Coquille Basin were high and muddy this past weekend. The North Fork Coquille River will be the first river to clear. The South Fork Coquille River might be fishable by the weekend. Bank anglers have been plunking with spin-n-glos and bait near the town of Coquille. A few steelhead have been caught on the North Fork and South Fork Coquille rivers but overall fishing has been slow. Anglers have had success drifting eggs or corkies. In the Coquille Basin 1 additional hatchery steelhead may be retained per day for a total aggregate of 3 adult fish harvested daily.
Recreational crabbing is now open in all Oregon waters. Crabbing is very slow in the lower Coquille River due to the large amounts of freshwater coming downstream.
