The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Umpqua Fish District will host an informational update on local fisheries on Thursday, June 11, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in Roseburg.

The meeting will be held at the ODFW conference room, located at 4192 N. Umpqua Highway. A virtual option will also be available for those who cannot attend in person.

ODFW says the meeting will focus on several fisheries topics important to the Umpqua Basin and local anglers, including:

• A recap of the 2025 salmon and steelhead fishing seasons
• An update on Rock Creek Hatchery
• The Coastal Multispecies Conservation and Management Plan
• Fall Chinook forecasts, tentative seasons and possible adjustments
• Oregon Coast Coho status in the Umpqua Basin
• Hatchery coho releases

Community members may also submit questions or comments before the meeting by emailing Evan Leonetti at evan.leonetti@odfw.oregon.gov or Chris Traill at christopher.a.traill@odfw.oregon.gov.
