Newberg area

Hello just moved to Newberg recently from Eastern Oregon (Milton Freewater)

Just wanted to see what info I can get on fishing spots around the Yamhill valley here in Newberg for Trout/Bass?

Any info greatly appreciated, thanks!

Welcome to this side of the state.

Yamhill Locks (Park) has produced many different varieties of species over the years. Both coldwater and warmwater finned creatures can be had. Give it a go--it's practically in your back yard. It's just a hop to the SW of Newberg...between Dayton & Lafayette.

Hagg Lake is just 30 minutes away. It's stocked for trout and also serves as a good warm-water fishery (or so I hear -- I only fish for trout). you need a Washington county park permit. You can buy a one-day at the kiosk when you enter or an annual at the market just down the road from the entrance. I only fish from the shore, and lots of people do, but fishing from a boat is also very popular and their are two boat ramps.

Hagg has pumped out state smallie records.

pretty good. Hagg lake had its trout, got some there and bass at Locks park. Then some catfish and bass at the bridge at St Paul.
