WILSON RIVER: Winter steelhead
The Wilson River has been fair to good for winter steelhead. Heavy rains are falling in Tillamook and the coast range the next few days and the Wilson will most likely blow out later today. It is predicted to start dropping by Saturday and should fish by early next week.There are fish throughout the basin. The Wilson has one of our largest hatchery steelhead releases and is should be a top pick for those wanting to catch a keeper this time of year; the lower river is mostly a drift boat fishery but there is plenty of bank access higher up off of Highway 6. Last updated 3/11/26.
