Tillamook Bay has been slow to fair for fall Chinook, but there are salmon present in both the lower and upper bay. Anglers are catching fish daily. Given the recent rains, fish should be pushing through upper tidewater areas and into the rivers, but that said, there are still fresh fish coming in.
The adult wild Chinook daily bag limit for all Tillamook Rivers (Tillamook River and Bay, Kilchis River, Miami River, Wison River, and Trask River) is one fish in aggregate. No more than two adult wild Chinook salmon may be retained for the period in aggregate. See the regulation updates for more details.
The wild coho fishery CLOSED on Oct. 23. NO retention of wild coho is allowed the remainder of the year in Tillamook Bay. There is a hatchery coho run in Tillamook Bay, bound for the Trask River, and retention of hatchery coho is still allowed as part of the daily salmon bag limit.
Sea-run cutthroat trout fishing has slowed in tidewater, but there are still some around.
