Mexican Fish Report

Fall Chinook has started to pick up the last two weeks on the Siuslaw river! We have gotten a good report that Siuslaw is showing some earlier success compared to its basin neighbors. Fish have been moving into the basin quickly. Folks have been catching some decent size bright fish in tide water and in the bays.‌

The Siuslaw has different regulations for fall Chinook bag limits than the other Mid Coast basins due to a below average forecast. So be sure to check the regulation updates before heading out. We have had a decent amount of reported fish being caught tidewater and below. ‌

Wild coho retention opened last Friday. Much like the rest of the Mid Coast basins, it's been a slow start to coho. Although, lots have fish have been seen rolling and jumping, and there've been a few reports of fish being caught. ‌

Using spinners for coho is a great way to catch a fish, or try twitching which can be a bit more challenging but quite fun! Check out the regulations before you head out this weekend. ‌

Like the rest of the Mid Coast basins, trout fishing is open. With the warmer temperatures and the water being low and clear in the basin, check out trout in the Siuslaw this weekend.
