The Rogue River has slowed for spring Chinook, with a handful of fish a day caught, but poor catch rates with low, clear conditions reports Andy Martin of Wild Rivers Fishing. “Dam releases will give flows a bump this weekend. A few salmon are showing up already in the Upper Rogue near Shady Cove.”
