Fly-anglers continue to report good and consistent fishing in the Fall River. Nymphing and stripping small streamers have been the most effective methods. With cool winter water temperatures look for fish congregating in the deeper runs.

A reminder to anglers that new regulations are in effect for Fall River and the river is now closed to fishing below Fall River Falls Oct. 1 through May 21. Fall River above Fall River Falls remains open year-round. Restricted to fly-fishing with barbless hooks only. ODFW staff have noticed an increase in lures being used in Fall River and remind anglers that the use of lures and bait is prohibited.
