Fall Chinook fishing on the Alsea has been fair to good. Recent rains have moved some fish out of the bays and upriver.
The wild coho retention season closed Nov. 10. This split season is new for the Alsea so anglers are reminded to check the regulations and dates before going out. Fish should be available throughout tidewater and the lower river.
Hatchery steelhead opens on Nov. 1 from the mouth to the confluence of the North and South Forks. Anglers should avoid encounters with spawning Fall Chinook. The entire North Fork Alsea closed to all angling on Nov. 1 through Nov. 30.
