Spring Chinook fishing on the Trask has picked up. There is plenty of water for this time of year. The water has been a little cold for prime springer fishing, but with the warm weather early this week, it should be improving by the weekend. Bobber fishing bait, back bouncing, pulling divers and bait or plugs are all good techniques.

Trout season opened May 22, and there should be some nice cutthroat around. Remember the limit on streams and rivers is two per day over 8-inches.

Anglers are reminded that from Cedar Creek boat slide (River Mile 10.9) downstream to marker at Loren’s drift (River Mile 9.0) from May 1 – July 31, angling is restricted to fly angling or salmon bobber angling (See diagram on page 16 of the Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations).
