The winter steelhead fishing season is still officially open, but the run is basically done for the season. The South Fork Coquille River typically gets a late push of steelhead in late March/early April.

Striped bass fishing will be picking up for anglers fishing around Coquille and Arago. Fishing at night will increase your chances of catching a striped bass.

Trout fishing in streams and rivers will reopen May 22.
