Small game hunting workshop Jan. 21 near Corvallis
Join ODFW at EE Wilson Wildlife Area on Jan. 21 for a rabbit hunt. ODFW provides all equipment at these workshops so they are perfect for beginners.

Winter steelhead fishing  
Winter steelhead have been caught in most coastal rivers, and in some the season is well underway. Keys to success include monitoring water levels and hitting the water as they begin to drop, and decreasing for cold, wet conditions – it’ll make it easier to stay on the water longer.

Report big game hunt results by Jan. 31, 2017
Remember to complete a report for each 2016 deer, elk, bear, cougar and pronghorn tag you purchased—even if you didn’t hunt or weren’t successful. Report online at reportmyhunt.com or call 1-866-947-6339.

Bird hunting continues – Check conditions, access
Access to typical hunting areas may be limited due to snow, especially off main roads. Chukar and other upland bird hunters should check access before going out and be ready for winter conditions.
