About Youngs River

Youngs River, in Oregon, United States, is a river where current dictates almost everything. Rocks, undercut banks, and fallen timber are the obvious targets, but the productive water at Youngs River is often the seam between two current speeds — that's where fish wait for food to drift past. Match the size of your bait or lure to whatever insects, baitfish, or crayfish you can see in the water.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Chinook salmon

    Vary your retrieve speed and depth until you find what the fish are responding to, as their preferences can change daily.

  • For White sturgeon

    Focus on fishing near the bottom in deep holes or channels where sturgeon tend to congregate, using a heavy weight to keep your bait in the strike zone.

  • For Largemouth bass

    Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.
