Hunter Creek

Hunter Creek is a small stream that enters the ocean near Gold Beach, Oregon, two miles south of the Rogue River. Hunter Creek is currently closed to trout along its entire reach, and is closed to salmon angling on National Forest lands. No hatchery supplementation occurs, but there is a moderate run of wild winter steelhead up to 15 pounds. Fishing pressure is generally low to moderate during steelhead season.

*Bait is only allowed for salmon and steelhead fishing and not allowed for trout fishing.
