Summary

From the tidewaters of the Columbia River to the high desert country of the Lower Deschutes River, Oregon waters offer something to every angler. More than twenty species of game fish can be found in the state's big rivers, small streams, ocean bays, and reservoirs. But how do you know when and where to fish, how to get there, and what kind of gear to use? The answers are all here in Fishing Oregon - the most accurate and up-to-date angler's resource available on the state that offers some of the finest sport fishing in the Pacific Northwest. Local angler and author Jim Yuskavitch knows these waters, whether angling for steelhead in the McKenzie River or Chinook salmon in the Rogue River, and has collected the information that will help other anglers fish here. Answering the questions every angler asks before setting out, he provides descriptions of eighty- eight fishing hot spots, including top locations on the North Santiam, Siletz, Trask, Clackamas, Metolius, Owyhee, Klamath, Minam, and Grande Ronde Rivers.
