Cutthroat trout fishing should be picking up in some rivers in the Northwest Zone. Fall chinook are starting to return and numbers should improve from late September through mid October. Some lakes in the Southwest Zone are providing good opportunities for largemouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. Try fishing during mornings and evenings for best results. In central Oregon fishing for rainbow trout at Crane Prairie Reservoir is good and anglers are catching kokanee, brown trout and rainbow trout at Paulina Lake. Some reservoirs in the Southeast Zone are providing good opportunities to catch rainbow trout and largemouth bass. Lake of the Woods was recently stocked to provide anglers with opportunities to catch legal sized rainbow trout.

One proposal is to eliminate the special regulations in the Emigrant Bridge to Pine Creek Bridge section of the Yellowstone River, thus resulting in consistent trout regulations from Yellowstone Park to the I-90 bridge at Billings. The new combined trout limit would be four brown or rainbow trout daily and in possession, with only one more than 18 inches long.
