Winter steelhead fishing has been slow on the Siuslaw with the high and off-color conditions. The river is finally starting to come back into shape and the fishing should improve over the next couple of weeks as more fish move into the system. The Whitaker Creek area is the best place to target returning hatchery fish.
Hatchery fish are also planted in Lake Creek and are released into Green Creek. These returning hatchery fish will start to show up in December and peak in January and February.
