Our Spring Chinook – Summer Steelhead season is in Full Swing now on Oregon’s Majestic McKenzie River
Cecil & Julie brought some hot “Mojo” along on their McKenzie fishing trip on Wednesday. They really had a blast, and let me tell you, when Julie hooks a fish, pretty much everyone for half a mile knows it. Great fun! They ended up taking home 3 big Springers and a chromer Steelhead to boot. Not too shabby for folks looking for pleasant float, where hooking a salmon would be just a bonus. That kind of good attitude seems to just bring success.
Our Spring/Summer Salmon & Steelhead Season is now in Progress
My Guest Jamie Lowe was all smiles yesterday on his first Springer trip of the season. Fishing pressure was surprisingly light and the weather, absolutely delightful as we drifted down the McKenzie River. Hooking 3 salmon was icing on the cake, boding well for a season that is now just underway. We look forward to many more memorable days in the weeks ahead.
Big Steelhead & Salmon Run predicted for 2012 McKenzie River
A very good run of Springers and Summer Steelhead is anticipated for the 2012 season. A few fresh chrome-bright steelhead are already showing up in the McKenzie, MF Willamette, & Santiam systems. We have been enjoying some great hatchery trout action mostly on pitched spinners and spoons in the coastal lakes as we wait for the steelhead and salmon fishing to really materialize
Lots of Winter Steelhead now on the “Bite” with dropping river levels
Our recent trips are producing some great catches of Winter Chrome. Trips to the Siuslaw and the S.F. Coquille all produced nice fish.
Time to Look for Steel
From January through March 31 we focus on Chrome Winter Steelhead found in our major premier rivers and our precious tiny creeks alike.
