Flow in Grants Pass is about 2,040 cfs. The water temperature is averaging around 66F but creeping up above 68F in the afternoons. Summer steelhead are migrating through the middle Rogue. Bright fall Chinook are starting to show up in the middle Rogue. As always, anglers are encouraged to harvest any introduced pikeminnow caught in the middle Rogue, while we encourage the release of native suckers.

Anglers, please use proper catch-and-release techniques, such as keeping fish in the water as much as possible and releasing them quickly. If fish are getting injured with the technique you are using, please change techniques. Remember that smaller rainbow are usually the steelhead that will return in future years.
