A very strong season total of 8,900 hatchery spring Chinook have made it into the hatchery as of last week and more have shown up since then so now is a good time to try for a spring Chinook as the season will be ending in a week.‌

Spring Chinook fishing has been good for both boat and bank fishing over the last couple of weeks. Also, as of a few weeks ago 4,000 adult hatchery spring Chinook have been recycled back into the fishery at the Gold Hill boat ramp to provide anglers another opportunity to catch a spring Chinook in the upper Rogue. Additionally, more reports of summer steelhead being caught are coming in so that fishery is beginning.‌

The release from Lost Creek is 1,600 CFS and the river temperature is 54F. ‌

Anglers can call the Army Corps of Engineers at 800-472-2434 for an update on hatchery counts as well as flow and temperature information.‌

Make sure to check the Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations for each section of river before you head out. ‌

For up-to-date river levels, check all the USGS Rogue gauges here
