Steelhead angling is still open in the Coquille Basin until April 30. Several anglers caught bright steelhead on the South Fork Coquille River this past weekend. In the Coquille Basin one additional hatchery steelhead may be retained per day for a total aggregate of three adult fish harvested daily.

Crabbing has been slow in the Coquille due to the amount of freshwater in the bay from the recent rain. It is still recommended you discard the crab viscera (guts/butter) before cooking.
