Keno Dam downstream to Hwy 66 Bridge

Closed to fishing for salmon. The river from Keno Dam downstream to Hwy 66 is open.. Fishing remains slow. Please remember that the bag limit has changed to one redband rainbow trout per day in the 12- to 15-inch size class. No bait is allowed. Also, the area on the river near the Klamath Sportsman Park downstream to Hwy 66 is closed to public access

Water temperatures are very cold but flows are very good for fishing. November and December are typically good months to fish this area however, due to extensive drought adult redband/rainbow trout numbers are very low. Catch-and-release is highly encouraged. Most redband/rainbow are small.
