Water temperatures have picked and flows have dropped in the lower Rogue. This is the time of year when fish slow down and hang in holes in the lower river or stay in the bay. Anglers will have to work a little bit harder to find them. The bay has been slow, but anglers are still picking up a few Chinook and the occasional coho.

This is the time of year anglers need to pay extra attention to the fish they catch as there are decent numbers of coho in the bay. ALL WILD COHO MUST BE RELEASED.

ODFW annually monitors the run of Chinook, steelhead, and coho at Huntley Park (approximate 8 miles upstream from the mouth) on the Rogue River. To learn more about the project, people can visit the ODFW website to receive this years' two-week updates and to see the historical catch.

Anglers that see a game violation can report the violation to *OSP (*677) on a mobile device or call 1-800-452-7888. Anglers can also file complaints or potential violations concerning guides to the Oregon State Marine Board.
