Friday, May 09 2025
As of May 2025, both the Nestucca River and Three Rivers are offering good fishing opportunities, especially for steelhead and spring Chinook salmon. Fishing conditions have been moderate due to low water levels, but rainfall is expected to improve the situation and bring fresh fish into the system. The Nestucca River is currently hosting both hatchery and wild winter steelhead. While fishing has been slow due to clear water, the spring Chinook run is beginning, with the peak expected in mid-May. Access to the river is available at First Bridge, Farmer Creek, and the mouth of Three Rivers. Public access is available upstream above Blaine. For anglers on Three Rivers, rising water levels are bringing in fresh hatchery steelhead, and fishing is expected to improve. Public access is available for both bank and drift boat fishing.Anglers should be aware of important regulations, including seasonal closures and gear restrictions from May 1 to July 15. Anti-snagging regulations require single-point hooks with a 3/8 inch gap or less and leaders between 18 and 36 inches. Effective techniques include using jigs, spinners, spoons, or flies. Early morning and late evening tend to be the best times to fish. Fishing will improve after rain, as rising water levels bring in more fish
