Striped bass anglers are fishing the lower mainstem Coquille River but there are a few striped bass still above the town of Coquille.
There are still some shad around near Arago Ramp and upstream into the South Fork Coquille River.
Smallmouth bass are active in the mainstem Coquille River, South Fork Coquille and Middle Fork Coquille. Smallmouth bass can be found throughout the mainstem Coquille but are in higher abundance above Johnson Mill Pond. There are lots of smallmouth bass in the South Fork Coquille in the deep pools. The majority of the fish are under 8 inches long so anglers should use smaller hooks.
The use of spears/spear fishing to harvest smallmouth bass was recently approved and is allowed from June 1 – Oct. 31. Anglers may also use bait in the mainstem Coquille and tributaries from June 1 – Oct. 31.
Trout fishing opened in the rivers and streams on May 22.
