Again, I am very sorry to have had to cancel so many Fall Salmon trips due to the untimely driftboat loss during peak season.  While on the way home from a fishing trip, an on-coming driver on his cell phone, came at me head-on, damaging the truck and totalling the boat and trailer.  As soon as I have a suitable replacement boat registered with the Marine Board, I will head on down to the Elk, Sixes, and Chetco Rivers to finish up the Fall/Winter Chinook Season.  Lets also hope that January, February, and March will provide us some solid Winter Steelhead action.  We have rain in the prediction which should bring another nice batch of salmon into our southern Oregon rivers.  Crabbing in Coos Bay and on the lower Coquille at Bandon remains strong.

Our current rainy conditions should finally bring in some new Fall Chinook  and Coho into our coastal rivers and streams.
