Low and clear. Anglers are picking up a few fish, but continued low water has been making for some tough fishing conditions. Rain is expected by the weekend which should improve fishing conditions.

The ODFW angler caught winter steelhead broodstock program started last week. This is an annual program to collect adult steelhead to be spawned for the hatchery program on the river. Anglers interested in participating or would like more information can call the ODFW Gold Beach office at 541-247-7605.
