Welcome to OFF and to fishing. Steelhead are the fish of "a thousand casts". So remain patient, until you get it dialed in. Most winter runs seem to begin in November. My dad always used to hit the Alsea, on the day after Thanksgiving. Visit my friend Eric's website here, to help get you up...

I've been fishing that lake for many years. It's often been sporadic for me. Several peeps have done very well there recently. Some while fly fishing. But I don't recall what they had at the end of their bug wands. In years past, while in my float tube, I did well with an olive green Woolly...

In case you haven't yet heard... CLACKAMAS, Ore. – Angling will be closed, on the lowest reach of Eagle Creek in the Clackamas basin, from Oct. 2 through Dec. 31. To give coho salmon a safe resting area amid ongoing low water flows. The closure is from the mouth upstream to SE Dowty Rd. bridge.

Welcome to OFF. I've only fished once OFF of a jetty--for sea bass after sundown--in Newport. Hopefully other members will chime in; with some good tips. Although I do know that Ho's like hot pink Rooster Tails.

Dean is an awesome guy; with fantastic products. I met him many years ago; at the Newport Sportsman Show. His 4" trout dodgers figure out, to about $5 each and includes shipping. So half, of what they cost elsewhere! His website appears to have been taken offline. So I sent him, a Facebook...

No foolin' buddy!!!

Thank you. But I get my trout dodgers from Dean, at North Country Flies and Lures in Florence. Great quality, and equally great prices.

Far out man! That's great.

Fantastic my friend!!! Congrats!!!

Bait / Tackle shops may know the answer. Maybe some of the guides too. Good luck.
