http://www.dfw.state.or.usTrout fishing in streams is open until Oct. 31. Fishing with bait is now allowed in streams above tidewater.
Anglers have been trolling for Chinook salmon on the Coquille River from Bandon up to Arago Boat Ramp. Fishing for salmon has been very sporadic this past week. A few hatchery coho have been caught in the lower Coquille. There is no season this year for wild coho in the Coquille but anglers may harvest hatchery coho.
Fishing for smallmouth bass has been good in the mainstem and South Fork Coquille. Jigs, crawdad crankbaits, and nightcrawlers will all work to catch smallmouth bass.
Crabbing has been decent for boat crabbers across from Bandon in the lower Coquille.
