Best bets SPRING BREAK fishing

If your plans for spring break don’t include fishing, you need to change your plans. Consider adding trout and steelhead fishing, and/or bay clamming to your agenda.

• Several ponds, lakes and reservoirs in the NW, SW, Central and NE zones have been stocked with trout just in time for spring break.
• In addition, trout fishing in several rivers with year-round fisheries – think Deschutes, Fall Metolius, Crooked, Blitzen and Wallowa – will be picking up thanks to recent warmer weather.
• Winter steelhead fishing is winding down, but anglers are still catching bright steelhead in places like the north and mid-coast, Willamette Valley and northeast Oregon.
• Low tides next week will have shifted to mid-afternoons. A much more convenient time for some bay clamming. Here’s how to dig for bay clams.
