Fishing is generally best when flows are below 3,000 cfs. Currently flows are around 1,500 cfs at the Waterloo gage, but this is likely to change based on the amount of rain in the forecast.
Steelhead fishing is open year-round. The run this year is disappointing, but fish are still around, primarily from Waterloo Park upstream to the dam. Chinook have completed their spawning but a few carcasses may still be around on the river margins. Be careful not to allow pets to eat these carcasses as they carry a toxin that is poisonous to dogs.
Fishing for smallmouth bass can be very good during the warm months below Lebanon.
Trout fishing remains open until Oct. 31. Anglers are reminded that only fin-clipped trout may be kept.
