Spring Chinook fishing is slow on the Nestucca River but there are fish throughout the fishery. Cedar Creek hatchery has recycled a few spring Chinook. These fish are marked with a hole punch in the operculum (gill cover); if you catch one, we'd love to hear about it. Please report it to Cedar Creek hatchery or to the District office at (503)842-2741.‌

Summer steelhead are in the Nestucca and there are some fish being caught although it's been a little slow. Fish should be throughout the fishery (up to Elk Creek). ‌

Cutthroat trout fishing should be fair to good, with fish spread through the river system.
