Difficult Fishing Conditions

Santiam River ( North Fork) Above Detroit Lake - Lyons, OR (Marion County)

Hwy 22 has been re-opened, although delays will continue and many access points to the river above Stayton, such as Packsaddle and Fisherman’s Bend, remain closed due to wildfire damage. 

No recent fishing reports. River levels best for fishing are at or below 3,000 cfs, and the river is currently running around 13,000 cfs, which are difficult conditions at best. Water clarity is relatively good despite the high flows.

A few hatchery summer steelhead are still around. Fishing for hatchery steelhead is open year-round. 

Anglers should be aware that trout harvest is now closed and will not re-open until May 22.
