Flow in Grants Pass is about 1,600 cfs with a water temperature of around 66F.
Summer steelhead and trout are the best bets in this section of the Rogue right now as most spring Chinook are upriver and not many more are expected to come out of the canyon. A few more summer steelhead have been reported so fly-fishing or a Blue Fox spinner might catch one of those.
Anglers are reminded that trout fishing opened back up May 22. Only adipose fin clipped rainbow trout may be retained. All wild rainbow and cutthroat trout must be released unharmed. Consult the fishing regulations for more information.
Current flow, temp and turbidity conditions for the Rogue can be found at the USGS stream gauges here, or checking the City of Grants Pass water page's river data here.
