There should be some Chinook moving into the river with the recent rains. The Miami is a little off color as of this writing, but is still fishable.
The catch-and-release fishery for chum salmon is open until Nov. 15 and it’s likely some of them are showing up now as well. This is a popular fishery, and can be really fun, but anglers are reminded to use ethical tactics and release fish unharmed. Last year we observed and received multiple complaints about snagging of chum salmon which is illegal. Oregon State Police will be watching for snagging activity and continued non-compliance could result in a loss of fishing opportunity.
