Fall Chinook is open on the Yaquina but slower than most of its neighbors. Fish are certainly around in the basin, but for both coho and Chinook fish will be moving higher up into the basin as the rains keep coming!

Wild coho retention is back open on the Yaquina! It will remain open through November 16, and will offer additional harvest in the basin
