UMPQUA RIVER, MAINSTEM:

Chinook fishing closes Dec. 1. Please note there is no retention of unclipped coho salmon in the river, but fin-clipped coho is open in the river as part of your two adult salmon daily limit.

Steelhead fishing should be starting up on the main. Make sure to turn in snouts from hatchery fish for a chance to win a gift card.

Trout fishing is currently closed on the Main and its tributaries, but will reopen next Memorial Day.

UMPQUA RIVER, NORTH: 

There have been some reports of anglers catching summer steelhead, but it has been slow. We are entering the shoulder season for steelhead and it should pick up for winter steelhead in January. Make sure to turn in snouts from hatchery winter steelhead for a chance to win a gift card.

The North is closed to all fishing for Chinook.

Some of the North Umpqua and tributaries are open for trout (those above Slide Creek Dam): check the fishing regulations to see which areas are closed.

Note that as of Oct. 1, fishing in the fly water area is restricted to the use of a single, barbless, artificial fly.

UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH:

The mainstem South reopens to steelhead fishing Dec. 1. Make sure to turn in snouts from hatchery fish for a chance to win a gift card.
