Sept/Oct/Nov is the most popular time to go.
I like October for a safe month.
The Trinity, Klamath, Rogue, Umpqua, Deschutes, and
Grande Ronde are some of the best rivers.
If you need any help planning a trip let me know.
Through Flywater Travel I booked about 20 anglers into guided Fall Steelhead trips to Morrison's Lodge on the Rogue River and
Grande Ronde River float trips too.
Mostly I just use a floating line with a long mono tapered leader and an unweighted classic dark winged Steelhead fly.
I love wading these rivers and I love fly casting and I love to feel the grab.
I use an old click-n-pawl or ratchet reel so I get to hear the music when the fish takes off.
