Fish Report for 10-12-2022

Flows are currently around 430 cfs

OR Department of Fish & Wildlife Staff

This river is open year-round to fishing, and with winter right around the corner, trout are going to want to fatten up beforehand. Flows are still in excellent shape and the summer crowds are gone. Fly-fishing techniques work very well here, but bait is also allowed. Flows are currently around 430 cfs where it flows into Detroit Reservoir and dropping. Trout are stocked throughout the summer months. 

Anglers may see salmon actively spawning along the river. Please keep your distance and do not disturb them during this time so they can complete this vital step in their life cycle. Also, please keep your dog away from salmon carcasses as they can make dogs very ill, even fatally so, if they are consumed.

Anglers may keep up to five trout per day. Remember, this section of river is closed to salmon fishing.
