Chetco river

Finally we have been able to fish the Chetco river the past 10 days. We have had decent to average results fishing out of Brookings Oregon. The river has been up and down with flows due to many weather systems passing through the area. Fishing from the South Fork put in down to Social Security river bar take out has been the ideal float for us.  Our best day was hooking 8 and landing 2. We will be fishing where ever the fishing is best in Southern Oregon and Northern California this season . We have availability for February and March. Feel free to contact us for more details.

Well, the last few weeks on the Chetco river has been one for the books!! We have caught Steelhead in all conditions from brown water to clear water. I have to tip my hat to the brood stock program up here in Oregon. They have an amazing program!! Being apart of the program and able to chose the genetics has been an amazing experience. The weather has been sunny and warm, what more can a steelhead fisherman ask for??

Most fish have been coming on the bead. The boat pressure has been busy during the green water days. Most of the boaters were happy to be on the river chasing steelhead which is nice! There is always a few knuckle heads out on the river trying to go against the grain, which is unfortunate. Its always nice when everyone has bent rods and big smiles!!

lets pray to the weather gods to keep bring us rain in southern Oregon and northern California. We all know we need it! I don’t know where I will be in the next week but stay tuned for the next fishing report.

Keep It Reel…

Fishing has been off to a great start for 2021 and the new 2022 winter steelhead season. Big tides brought some good pushes off fresh fish up many of the north coast and southern Oregon river. With all the low snow melting with these next few rains, we will be off the river for a handful of days.

This year has started off 100 times better than last year! All though last year had low numbers but big size, this year seems to be high in early numbers of steelhead. Hopefully we keep getting the much need precipitation toppled with good numbers of fish. KEEP IT REEL and see you on the water…
