Trout fishing is back open on the Alsea! As we head into mid-July waters are low and clear and provide opportunity for trout fishing. Folks who have been out have had decent success catching cutthroat of various sizes.‌

It's been warm so getting out early while temps are still cool will lead to the best success for trout. Try targeting cooler deeper pools, shaded banks, or heads of riffles to find fish holding in colder water. ‌

It is still a little early for Chinook entering the bay but there have been some anglers looking for the early returning fish. Fishing should start picking up over the next couple weeks.
