Winter steelhead are moving into the Siletz! The town loop float and beyond have been productive through the holiday weeks, and moving into this weekend, the majority of the midcoast should be quite fishable! The Siletz Gorge offers additional bank opportunity but is only open for driving during the weekends. Fishing will likely be better a bit lower down in the system going into the dry cold weekend with better float bets being downstream of Illahee.

There was a landslide on HWY 229 resulting in a road closure at approximately milepost 14.5. HWY229 will be closed for the unforeseeable future until crews are able to safely remove the debris from the roadway.

As a general reminder for Anglers: Help to protect boating opportunities by maximizing distance from bank anglers and other boats. Safely row or motor around anglers and other boats and avoid motoring nearshore and in shallow areas!
