ODFW release - We just stocked millions of trout this year, and some are for you! Check the trout stocking schedule and maps for locations near you.  Fall seasons on the Columbia River start Aug. 1 including the popular fall Buoy 10 fishery. Also, summer steelhead retention has been extended until Aug. 31 from the Buoy 10 line upstream to Bonneville Dam. Check the regulation updates for details.  Fall Chinook seasons are getting underway. On the North Coast, Tillamook Bay, the Nestucca estuary (Pacific City), Trask River, Nestucca River, and the lower Columbia tributaries (Big Cr., Gnat Cr., and Klaskanine R.) will provide the best opportunities. Check the regulation updates including bag limits for wild Chinook.  Summer steelhead runs are on in the Nestucca and Wilson Rivers. Summers are throughout the fisheries and there have been some getting caught.  Nehalem fall Chinook run is showing up with a few getting caught down by the mouth of the bay.  The next stocking for North coast lake trout will be in September (see the schedule below or online). There will be trout available most of the summer, but fishing will get more challenging as the water warms up. Fishing early morning and late evening and targeting higher elevation lakes that stay cooler will up the odds of success.  The North Jetty of Tillamook Bay (accessible through Barview County Park) provides some good angling opportunity for rockfish and kelp greenling this time of year.  Reminder the annual razor clam conservation closure runs through Sept. 30 on Clatsop Beaches. The closure restores the clam grounds and allows repopulation. Check tide tables here: https://tides.net/oregon/ and check for any closures. Razor clam digging is still open along the central and south Oregon coast.  Crabbing remains open along the Oregon coast.  It's a great time of year to fish for warmwater species. See our guide.  The General Marine Species bag limit increased to a 5-fish bag limit with a 1-fish sub-bag limit for cabezon which also opened July 1. With warm weather on the beach, it's a good time to try surf perch fishing.  The Rogue River above Lost Creek Reservoir is the premier summer trout fishery in the Rogue watershed. Anglers can escape the heat of the Rogue Valley, enjoy beautiful scenery, and catch fish. Campgrounds and other public access sites along Highway 62 and Highway 230 are stocked with rainbow trout on a weekly basis between Memorial Day and Labor Day.  Haystack Reservoir continues to yield trophy-sized and brood trout in the 16-17-inch range!  Redband trout fishing from bank and boat is fair on Upper Klamath and Agency lakes.  Anglers report excellent kokanee fishing at Lake Billy Chinook, and Wickiup Reservoir. Fish at Lake Billy Chinook average 13 inches; while 14–17-inch fish can be found at Wickiup.
