Winter steelhead fishing will open on Dec. 1 and fish will start entering the Siuslaw system throughout the month of December. Hatchery fish in the Siuslaw system return to Whitaker Creek (Siuslaw) and Green Creek (Lake Creek).
Due to lower than expected returns and conservation concerns, fall Chinook fishing on the Siuslaw remains closed upstream of the Tiernan boat ramp (downstream of Mapleton). Below the deadline the bag limit for fall Chinook is reduced to one adult Chinook per day and a limit of 3 from Nov. 1 through the remainder of the season. Chinook fishing continues to be slow in the open area.
All wild coho must be released for the 2018 fall salmon season.
Lake Creek, a tributary of the Siuslaw River, is closed for the 2018 fall salmon season.
