Springers of all sizes were caught in the lower Rogue last week, including this 15 pounder that had to be released, caught by a client in guide John Anderson's boat, photo by Memory Makers Rogue River Guide Service.

On Thursday, the Chetco was too colored up to effectively fish, but it should clear to perfection visibility this weekend. Make sure that you cast on one side or the other of current seams, like this one that is created from nearby willows. Photo by Larry Ellis.
