The North Fork Coquille River has been fishable this week. The South Fork Coquille River near Powers has been high but some bank anglers have been getting out to fish. Drift boat anglers wanting to fish the South Fork Coquille River might get a small window to fish this weekend before the river blows out with more rain next week.
As the water levels drop, the North Fork Coquille River will become fishable first followed by the South Fork Coquille. Steelhead anglers were catching hatchery winter steelhead on the North Fork Coquille River at LaVerne Park and on the South Fork Coquille River from the town of Powers downstream.
Trout fishing in closed in the rivers until May 22, 2024.
