Conditions
: SILETZ RIVER: Like the Salmon and Alsea rivers, the first big push of winter steelhead have entered the system. The Siletz also has a hatchery component to its steelhead run and provides a great opportunity for early season steelhead retention. Most of the earlier fish have shot up and are hanging around in the upper Siletz Gorge. Some of the deeper pools after the 4-mile bridge likely have some fish hanging around. The Gorge provides excellent bank fishing opportunity but as winter flows settle in, be mindful of traversing the river at higher flows. ? Lower down in the system floating through town, anywhere between Moonshine and Morgan has shown some excellent success. Folks are landing several fish per trip! The bite has slowed over the past week, although conditions have remained fair but will see some rough river conditions going into the weekend. ?
Trout fishing will reopen May 22. Last updated 2/28/24.Reported by: Oregon D.F.W |

About: -
The Siletz River is approximately 70 miles
long and drains a good of the Oregon Coast Range between Newport and Lincoln
City. Very little of this river is in public
ownership, however, and abundance of boat ramps makes this river very fishable
for boaters.(more
