Just get as close to the mouth as you can and you will find them. They are moving in when the tide rises.

Thats a tuff question to realy answer I would get out and go fishing if i was you. I know a lot of guys like to know if there gonna be fishing the "right" time . However you can not expect to base your fishing success on a report from another person. Get out on the water and enjoy your day, the catching will happen sooner then later good luck

Thanks! Im trying to find a day where its not too cold or rainy

I was on the Alsea Thursday below 5 rivers, and it was pretty frozen. But not all together. Saw steelhead at rock crusher hole, so fish are there. No one caught anything though, except frost bite. Yesterday Hwy 34 was closed due to freezing rain. So, there are fish there, and by now the Hwy. is open, but I can't help but think that there is still some ice hanging around the edges. I don't know where you plan to fish, but as long as the flow close to the bank you are fishing from is moving at a moderate rate then I think it's ok.

The water was perfect,and the weather was fine,if only the fish were more cooperative.My buddy landed a nice bright coho at Stouts,other than that,all we saw today were hoards of fancy clad fisher-peaple.Gonna try lower next time

Yup... seen more coho hooked than steelhead, well I didn't see any steelhead caught actually. Talked to one guy after I left the hatchery area, he said an argument broke out at the "meat hole".. guess a few fish were caught there but that was all I heard of or seen.
My new gear was working out nice though.
I think me a J. Jigs are floating it Sunday, hopefully with a good report.

This thread is for the Alsea river. Type Siuslaw in the search function and it will bring up any recent reports.

 

[nwkiller]

sorry

 

[beaverfan]

no problem man, you'll probably get a quicker response and probably more responses there.

Mill creek to camp bell is a good and easy drift if the water is high enough.

Sunday...the fish will cooperate, and tags will be marked. I had a fortune cookie that basically said so. Okay well maybe it just said "Happy news is on the way"... Perhaps it was speaking of all the fish that will throw themselves at my boat, because, really, what news is better than that?

Fortune cookies never lie, after all.

Seriously though, I am quite stoked to fish this river Sunday. Fishing new water rocks.
