http://www.dfw.state.or.usThere should be a few spring Chinook and summer steelhead showing up on the Wilson, and fishing should continue to improve throughout the month.
Bobber and eggs or sandshrimp, drift fishing, back bouncing, and divers and bait are all good techniques for Springers; these fish can be finicky, but are worth the effort! For summer steelhead drift fishing, spinners, and flies are good choices.
The North Coast Rivers open for trout fishing on May 22. There are some nice cutthroat around, and these aggressive fish can be fun to catch. Most of the rivers are restricted to artificial lures and flies above tidewater until Aug. 31, so check the regulations before you go.
