Idaho Fish Report

Trout and whitefish are available throughout the Grande Ronde River and can be caught on a variety of gear types including flies and lures. Steelhead have started to arrive in Oregon and folks are having some success catching steelhead around Troy. Coho have yet to arrive in good numbers, but they will continue to move upstream into the Grande Ronde in the coming weeks.

Anglers can encounter both fall Chinook salmon and bull trout in the Grande Ronde River. Neither species may be harvested in the Grande Ronde River and any bull trout or Chinook salmon caught while fishing for other fish must be released. Anglers should carefully identify any catch they plan to harvest as Chinook salmon and coho salmon can easily be confused.
