The Elk is in good shape

12-30-2021
Kenny Priest

According to Martin, salmon fishing has slowed on the Elk and Sixes as the attention turns to steelhead. “The Elk is in good shape, while the Sixes is still high. Winter steelhead also are being caught on the lower Rogue River, primarily by plunkers using Spin-N-Glos at Lobster Creek and Huntley Park.”
