Winter steelhead are moving into the Siletz! The majority of the midcoastal area should be quite fishable! The Siletz Gorge offers additional bank opportunity but is only open for driving during the weekends.

A landslide on HWY 229 has resulted 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.
