Fall Creek is the cut off not 5 Rivers isn't it?

Regs say:

"Mainstream including tidewater upstream to Fall Creek: Open for Chinook Salmon Aug.1 - Dec. 31"

Even will take this a step further.

Salmon and
Steelhead
In the aggregate:
2 adult salmon or
steelhead per day,

• See exceptions to the Chinook salmon catch limit under Nehalem,
Nestucca and Tillamook bays and tributaries, and Yachats River.
• Adipose fin-clipped coho salmon, pink salmon and sockeye salmon
may be retained as part of the adult and jack salmon daily bag limit

• Hatchery releases of coho salmon occur in the Trask River, North

I can't let that pass without comment- contrats on your graduation!, hope your move goes well, also your fishing.

Hey thanks. Steelhead are few and far between in the Alsea. Alseaalumaweld I don't know what you are talking about but I guess your saying that the fish are in there thick you are obviously referring to all the dark, nasty, spawned out salmon....because there was a lot. I fished most of my holes today, and fished many different ways and no strikes.

I'm talking about the car body whole that you get to when you park on the road and walk through the christmas tree farm. Are you being sarcastic when you say they are in there thick?

Yes I was being sarcastic, sorry no pun intended. Never heard of that hole before and just trying to have some fun. I would think there would be a couple around, not anything to wright home about though.

PS I was talking about steel.

how was fishing?
