With the start of September, the artificial fly season is underway between Fishers Ferry boat ramp and Cole Rivers Hatchery. Between Sept. 1 and Oct. 31, anglers may only fish artificial flies on any type rod, reel; no added weights or attachments except a bubble. This reach of the Rogue is open to fishing for summer steelhead and trout. Fishing for Chinook is now closed.
Trout fishing continues to be good in the upper river, while fishing for summer steelhead is slow with only spotty success.
The release from Lost Creek is 1,800 CFS, but will begin to decrease this weekend, reaching around 1200 cfs by Sept. 10.
Anglers can call the Army Corps of Engineers at 800-472-2434 for an update on hatchery counts as well as flow and temperature information.
Make sure to check the Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations for each section of river before you head out.
