As a general reminder for Anglers: Maximize distance from bank anglers and other boats. Safely row or motor around anglers and other boats and avoid motoring nearshore and in shallow areas! Check the zone in which you intend to fish before you head out. Access can change quickly with winter flooding, snow and ice conditions.  Northwest:  Winter steelhead fishing is expected to be good on the North Coast this weekend as rain comes in. Water temperatures are warming which should make fish more active. The Nestucca, Wilson, and North Fork Nehalem Rivers will provide the best opportunity to catch hatchery steelhead.  Coffenbury Lake, Vernonia Pond, Lost Lake, and Sunset Lake are stocked with surplus hatchery winter steelhead. Catching a steelhead in still water can be a fun and unique experience when the conditions on the rivers aren't good.  Southwest:  This is good time of year for Chinook anglers to check wild Chinook bag limits for the locations they are planning to fish.  Lost Creek Reservoir has had great reports by folks trolling for rainbow trout.  Ice fishing has started at Diamond Lake.  Willamette:  Several waterbodies will be stocked with trout this week.  Central:  The Crooked and Metolius Rivers continue to provide excellent winter angling opportunities. Excellent dry fly and nymphing opportunities on Fall River.  Anglers report good bank fishing opportunities for trout at Haystack Reservoir, now with surplus brood fish being stocked. Anglers report excellent kokanee and bull trout fishing at Lake Billy Chinook.  Northeast:  Trout and whitefish fishing should be good through winter on the Wallowa River.  Steelhead are throughout the Grande Ronde, Wallowa, and Imnaha Rivers.  Kokanee fishing has been good on Wallowa Lake.  Perch fishing has been good at Phillips Reservoir with some large fish caught.  Steelhead fishing is good on the Umatilla River.  Trout can still be found on Willow Creek Reservoir.  Southeast:  There are some nice holdover trout in the Malheur River below Warm Springs.  Crappie are abundant in Wolf Creek Reservoir with some nicer fish around 8 inches available. Crappie fishing in Owyhee Reservoir has been good.  Channel catfish are a popular option. Find them in the Snake River and Owyhee Reservoir throughout the summer and early fall.  Marine:  Crabbing is slow in Newport, good in Florence. Crab quality is good with lots of meat.  Refer to the zone reports for more details and possibilities.
