Current flow is around 1,330 cfs and temperature in the low-40s F. 

Coho are pushing through the middle Rogue and pulling plugs would be a good bet as water levels are forecast to rise this weekend. Only adipose-clipped coho may be harvested.

Summer steelhead are available and anglers are having success both on fly and gear. Trout fishing is open with a 5 fish daily bag limit for adipose fin-clipped (hatchery) trout. Non-adipose fin-clipped trout must all be immediately released unharmed.

Current flow, temp and turbidity conditions for the Rogue can be found at the USGS stream gauges here, or checking the City of Grants Pass water page’s river data here.
