UMPQUA RIVER, NORTH: winter steelhead
Steelhead fishing should be good and recent reports have anglers catching a good number. The peak for the North is in later February and March.
Some of the North Umpqua and tributaries are open for trout (those above Slide Creek Dam): check the fishing regulations to see which areas are closed.
Note that as of Oct. 1 fishing in the fly water area is restricted to the use of a single, barbless artificial fly.
UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH: winter steelhead
There some good reports throughout the South. The river is forecasted to drop back into shape and there should be lots of fish in the river.
