Current flow is around 3,900 cfs and temperature in the low-40s F. The river has some color to it and we’ve had recent reports of some nice winter steelhead being caught around Grants Pass over the last few weeks. Side drifting has been very productive.
ODFW has a crew conducting an angler creel survey through April 30 to monitor angling pressure on the river and steelhead catch.
There are new license requirements to fish for winter steelhead in 2023 on south coast rivers and anglers should check the new regulation book prior to fishing.
