Best bets for weekend fishing‌

The best fishing opportunities continue to be for trout and winter steelhead.‌

• Anglers are catching winter steelhead from the coast to Hood River, when conditions allow. Keep an eye on water levels, and hit the river once they begin to drop.
• The spring trout stocking season is underway in the Willamette and Southwest zones with several waterbodies being stocked this week.
• Native trout and mountain whitefish are available year-round in central and eastern Oregon rivers. Consider the Deschutes, Fall, Metolius, Blitzen and Wallowa.
