Fall Chinook fishing continues to improve on the Yaquina. More fish are entering the estuary each day and will continue to increase through the month of September. The forecasted rainstorm will stir things up and have fish on the move.

There is no wild coho retention on the Yaquina for the 2021 season.

Trout fishing in streams on the Yaquina/Big Elk remains open through Oct. 31. Check the regulations for open areas and bait restrictions.
