Winter Steelhead Report Overview Steelhead anglers have ample fishing opportunities throughout the state. The winter steelhead update is designed to help anglers identify productive river systems and specific locations for pursuing winter steelhead and to draw attention to any recent angling regulation changes. The ODFW maintains a rigorous stocking and fishery management program throughout Oregon, to maximize angling opportunities. All anglers are advised to read the Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations, available at license retail outlets on the Internet at www.dfw.state.or.us. General Angling Tips If you want to be a successful steelhead angler, you should concentrate on the techniques and tactics. Many of the world’s best steelhead fishermen call Oregon home, and they tend to focus on four major elements: When, Where, What and How. When are there steelhead in the river? Winter steelhead generally return to rivers from November through May, depending on the river. Steelhead anglers need to learn the run timing of the rivers they fish—watch for concentrations of other anglers, contact local hatcheries for return information, read fishing articles, and check several Websites for updated information on Steelhead returns. Also, successful winter steelhead angling depends primarily on water temperature, river levels or flow rates, and water clarity. Anglers can go to http://www.wrd.state.or.us/OWRD/SW/near_real_time.shtml  for current river flows and water temperatures. Contact local ODFW offices for current water conditions as well. Local sporting good stores are also an excellent source of information on the current local river conditions and steelhead angling techniques. Where are the steelhead in the river? Not only do steelhead anglers need to fish in rivers when the fish are present, they need to fish in the rivers where steelhead tend to congregate. In general, ODFW has reduced or eliminated “scatter planting” of steelhead to avoid straying and possible spawning by hatchery fish. This means that most of the better fishing for hatchery fish will be at or below the fish hatchery or a single release location. Within the river, steelhead typically prefer some type of holding water. While this varies with water conditions, anglers should generally focus their effort on runs or glides of moderate depth and current. Many experienced steelhead anglers concentrate on learning the rivers they fish. Try to avoid wasting time chasing down rumors of hot fishing. Instead learn where the steelhead are by getting to know one or two rivers well. It is often said that 90% of the fish are caught by 10% of the fishermen, and this is probably truer with steelhead than any other fish. How is it done? How are the steelhead caught?
