Flow in Grants Pass has crept up to 1,500 cfs on Oct 30, with a water temperature of around 47F. Expect changes with the rain coming this week.

Coho salmon are distributed throughout the middle Rogue. Please remember that all unmarked wild coho must be immediately released unharmed, while hatchery fish have an adipose finclip and may be harvested. Anglers can try casting spoons like Little Cleos or spinners like a Blue Fox. Another common technique is to fish bait or artificials like an egg imitation soft bead below a bobber. For fly anglers, coho will strike medium to large leech and streamer patterns in pink, orange, purple or black.

Some summer steelhead are being caught. Again, only hatchery summer steelhead may be kept and all wild steelhead must be released unharmed.
