SANTIAM RIVER (NORTH FORK): steelhead, trout, coho- River levels best for fishing are at or below 2,900 cfs, and the river is currently running at around 3,000 cfs at the gauge in Mehama. Fishing is slow this time of year. While the winter steelhead run is looking strong, these fish are ESA-listed, and avoiding targeting them is best for the fish population. Any of these unclipped (wild) steelhead or trout that are caught must be released unharmed. Also, remember that bait is not allowed until April 22. The Chinook fishery usually begins in late April and the first few dozen spring Chinook have navigated above the falls. Summer steelhead are looking better this year with over 800 adults having passed above Willamette Falls as of April 7. Last updated 4/10/24.
