Winter steelhead are moving throughout the Siuslaw River. Fishing has been slow throughout the season and winter steelhead has come to a close on the Siuslaw River. The colder temps made the Siuslaw challenging but conditions remained fair throughout the majority of the season. Fish have been observed higher up in the system on their way to spawn.

Trout fishing in streams will reopen on May 22.
