Trout fishing should be fair to good through the end of the season on Oct. 31.

The Necanicum River is open to Fall Chinook fishing Aug. 1 to Nov. 30. There are a few showing up in the estuary and may be a few pushing into the lower river although numbers will be low until we get some more rain. The daily adult wild Chinook salmon bag limit is one fish. No more than two adult wild Chinook salmon may be retained for the period. See the regulation updates for more details.

The Hwy 101 boat ramp on the Necanicum has been re-opened for angler access. The gate remains up but has a combination lock on it. Anglers can get the combination by calling the Tillamook District office at (503) 842–2741 and providing their name and ODFW Hunter/Angler ID number.
