Fishing conditions on the mainstem Umpqua are looking good this week. Shad fishing has been great this last couple of weeks and probably good for another week. Chinook fishing has slowed as fish are moving upstream. No reports of steelhead yet, but some may be starting to move up the lower reaches of the Umpqua.

Closed to angling within 200 feet of a tributary mouth in the mainstem and upstream among the tributaries from above Scottsburg Bridge to River Forks.

Spring Chinook runs until June 30. Wild spring Chinook may be harvested this year with a bag limit of 1 per day and 5 total from the mainstem Umpqua. This is in aggregate with the North Umpqua limit of wild Chinook of ten total Chinook per season. Anglers may still retain two adults per day, but only one may be wild (unclipped).
