Anglers have been catching steelhead on the Grande Ronde River. For steelhead, anglers can try using flies or casting jigs under bobbers. Trout and whitefish can also be caught throughout the winter when weather conditions allow.

Fishing for coho salmon ended on Nov. 30. However, coho are still present in the watershed. Please do not target or harass coho salmon as they complete their spawning run for the year. Anglers are reminded that wild steelhead, Chinook salmon, and bull trout cannot be harvested and must be released
