Most anglers are trolling the Rogue Bay with some early success on Chinook. Numerous summer steelhead are also being caught while trolling the bay. Anglers will want to make sure and release wild steelhead. This is only the beginning of the fall chinook run and the estuary fishery will be the best spot for anglers to target fall Chinook until river temperatures drop and flows pick up. Bank anglers have been having some pretty good success fishing downstream of Indian Creek at lower tides.
