Can anyone tell me if there are any steelhead or salmon in the Molalla River system yet? Thanks

I don't believe the Molalla has a hatchery. There is a wild steelhead run and some fall chinook but I don't think they get many Coho. And the Coho run is about over. As for steelhead, they aren't here yet.

Thanks Johnlmac. Yes, hearing that a handful of people have caught salmon further upriver above Molalla. I think it's safe to assume most of them that have made up there have spawned and aren't in the best of shape. Still fun to catch. Steelhead I've heard will start moving in this next month. December has historically been the time to start seeing them out here. Thanks!
