There are some really nice fish around in the 8 to 10 pound class. In the last two days I've hooked over 30 fish and landed 20. Remember that only fin clipped fish may be kept all wild fish must be returned unharmed. Fishing should remain good through December with a good number of fish still on the way.
Side drifting bait is the ticket right now but plugs are also working.
The upper Rogue River fly fished well for steelhead the last of October and first part of November. My guests got 18 steelhead hooked up and running from Monday the 30th to Thursday Nov 2. About half got away and the largest landed was 8 pounds. They're hitting drifted beadhead caddis patterns, egg patterns, and stonefly nymph patterns. As long as the weather remains drier than normal, fly casters can expect good steelhead fishing from Lost Creek Dam to TouVelle Park.
