Oregon’s Elk & Sixes Rivers Continue to Crank Out Hard-Fighting Fatties
Due to recent rains the Elk & Sixes Rivers are enjoying sustained, reasonable water levels and the fish are responding favorably.
With rainfall and consequent rising rivers, our Elk-Sixes fishing for big Chinook has been anything but disappointing
Hank can certainly attest to the size and power of these late-run fish!
Most of our Coastal Rivers now have Winter Steelhead on Tap
As we sadly say goodbye to our Fall-Winter Chinook Season, we happlily transition into our Winter Steelhead Season. Roaring Fork Guide Service wishes you All the Best in 2015!
Beautiful Chrome-Bright Winter Chinook Providing Great Sport on the Elk & Sixes Rivers in Southern Oregon
Cecil & Julie put together a great team effort to land this hard-fighting Salmon just in on the tide on lower Sixes.

The Elk & Sixes Rivers are Producing nice Catches of Big Chrome Salmon
Right now we have availablity for exciting guided driftboat trips on the Elk & Sixes Rivers. These precious streams have been kicking out boxfulls of large, gorgeous late-run Chinook routinely following each rise in the rivers. Recent rains have made for great sustained fishing. If you have never dabbled in the fishery, you owe it to yourself to enjoy this very special experience. Book a trip now while 2014 prices still apply. The Fall-Winter Chinook fishing down here near Port Orford usually holds through December 31.
Elk & Sixes Rivers Continue to Produce after each New Splash of Rain
The rain which pulls our salmon from the Pacific Ocean into their natal streams has been all too absent this fall season. With only 3 short intervals of rain this fall, bumper fishing days have been in short supply on the smaller coastal streams in southwest Oregon in 2013. Folks with enough savvy or good fortune to time their fishing soon after a good rain often reap chrome rewards. Since an inch or two of rain may only result in a couple days of good fishing, timing becomes everything. Sustained wet weather that keeps the river level up with […]
Big Fish make for Big Battles
Kelly & Bill had a day to remember landing the famed Elk River Hawgs they had only previously heard about. The short-lived rise in the river gave way to a couple days of hot fishing before the river dropped back to low and clear conditions. I just hope they had a good supply of Ben Gay!
Elk-Sixes River Rise Provides Epic Fishing – Short but Sweet!
A recent rise in the river levels on the Elk and Sixes Rivers last week resulted in some spectacular action on chrome-bright chunker Fall Chinook. Unfortunately, the water levels receded just as fast and the rivers returned to the low and clear conditions which preceded the rains. The first winter steelhead on Elk River has already been reported in the catch. In stark contrast to her rather quiet and reserved husband Cecil, my guest Julie is hardly known for silence when she’s got a fish on. I in fact got a few comments later that day like ” that […]
Big Kings Staging at the Elk River Mouth
In November and December I am headquartered down south on the Elk & Sixes Rivers at Port Orford. We have high hopes for a great late fall season this year. Big chunker Chinook are the target prey and the driftboat provides our means of attack. With consistent fall rains from Mother Nature and abundant numbers from the fish gods, this season could be epic. If you’ve never dabbled in this fishery, you may want to consider booking a trip.
