Winter steelheading has been slow on the Siletz, despite ideal conditions after the last storm. The dry forecast will have the river on the drop and fishable for the foreseeable future, and should pick up as more fish move into the system over the next couple of weeks. The typical peak for Siletz winter steelhead is January to March.
The 4.0 mile bridge (aka Steel Bridge) in the Siletz gorge is open to motorized vehicles on the weekends only. Anglers can walk/bike in the road during the weekdays. There is a parking area located at the 1-mile gate where anglers can walk/bike upstream from there
