Hello,
I am new to Oregon and am looking for any and all of the advice I can get about fishing anywhere on the Umpqua River, North or South branch. Any easily accessible locations, don't have a boat, (yet) types of lures, bait etc.
Any suggestions and advice will be greatly appreciated!

We have rafted the area near Tyee Campground. Check it out. Its got a lot of shallow water and very technical to maneuver through the little tiny islands etc but can find Small Mouth and Striper if you research it a bit. Striper closer to Salt ( tidewater brackish) Small Mouth up from there.

Welcome to the Forum, FW. More help should be on the way. Talk to the locals and the bait shop owners.
