Spring bear draw results available Visit the My Hunter Information page or call 1-866-947-6339 to find out if you drew a tag. SW Oregon tags are sold out. GRANDE RONDE RIVER: trout, whitefish, bass, steelhead The Grande Ronde ice is beginning to break up and a few anglers are trying their luck, however no reports have been received. Similar to other Columbia basin runs, the Grande Ronde stock is tracking below expectations this year. On the upside, a large majority of the returning fish are two-salt meaning larger average size. Harvest is limited to three hatchery steelhead per day and must be recorded on the Combined Angling Tag. A Columbia River Basin Endorsement is also required. IMNAHA RIVER: trout, bass The Imnaha is currently affected by ice but a few areas may be fishable. A few steelhead are typically present throughout the winter but the best fishing tends to start in late February and early March. Similar to other Columbia basin runs, the Grande Ronde stock is tracking below expectations this year. On the upside, a large majority of the returning fish are two-salt, meaning they are larger average size. Harvest is limited to three hatchery steelhead per day and must be recorded on the Combined Angling Tag. A Columbia River Basin Endorsement is also required. JOHN DAY RIVER: : wild steelhead Recent above freezing temperatures have opened up the majority of the river for fishing access. The North Fork is still iced over but mainstem flows have dropped and water clarity is improving. River edge and free floating ice are still present in most sections of the river. The majority of steelhead are scattered from the mouth up to Kimberly. Most John Day steelhead are wild and must be released without removal from the water. There are however some hatchery steelhead strays in the river and anglers are encouraged to keep up to three hatchery fish per day. Fish are being caught on flies, jigs, lures and bait. WALLOWA COUNTY PONDS: rainbow trout Kinney Lake was stocked at the end of September and should fish well throughout the winter. Anglers have recently reported good catch rates through the ice of healthy fish range 12 to 14-inches. This is the first year Kinney has been open for ice fishing and pressure has been very light. While driving access in not possible, a short walk on snowshoes or drive via snow machine will get you there. WALLOWA LAKE: rainbow trout, kokanee, lake trout Wallowa Lake has frozen for the first time since 2013. Fishermen have started taking advantage of the rare opportunity to ice fish. Trout and kokanee are being caught on bait and jigs. Anglers have reported catching kokanee to 13-inches which is much improved from previous years. WALLOWA RIVER: steelhead, mountain whitefish The Wallowa River ice is mostly broken up. A few anglers have tried they’re luck for steelhead with some success. Look for fishing to begin picking up into February. Remember, trout fishing is now available on the Wallowa all year and can produce some large fish. Harvest is limited to three hatchery steelhead per day and must be recorded on the Combined Angling Tag. A Columbia River Basin Endorsement is also required. NORTHEAST ZONE HUNTING BAKER COUNTY Chukar, Hun, and California Quail - The season ends Jan. 31. Hunters should expect a good season similar to last years. Chukar numbers were up for a second year in a row. Grouse season continues. Blue grouse can be found in the higher elevations while ruffed grouse are more common in wetter areas. Hunters should expect an average year for grouse. Cougars can be found throughout Baker County but hunters should target areas with high concentrations of deer and elk. Setting up on a fresh kill or using distress calls can all be productive techniques. Hunters are required to check in the hide of any cougar taken, with skull and proof of sex attached. Bear season ended November 30. Coyote numbers are good throughout the district. Try calling in early morning and late afternoon. Remember to ask for permission before hunting on private properties. GRANT COUNTY Cougar hunting remains open. Successful hunters should remember that check-in of the hide with skull and proof of sex attached is mandatory; see the regulations for details. Coyote numbers are good in most of the district. Coyotes may respond to distress calls. Try calling in the early morning and late evening. Upland Game Bird number a good this year as brood routes indicate a good production year. Chukars can be found is steep areas along the South Fork John Day River. Turkeys are doing well but are scattered because of mild and wet condition with good green up throughout the county. The birds have not concentrated on private land like most years. UNION COUNTY Cougars are common in Union County. Focus on game rich areas with long ridgelines or saddles that cats typically travel. Setting up downwind of a deer or elk killed by a cougar can be productive. Nonresident hunters can include a cougar tag with others tags for only $14.50. All cougars taken must be checked in within 10 days of harvest; call for an appointment before check in. Remember a 2017 cougar tag and hunting license is needed to hunt as of Jan. 1. Coyote numbers are high throughout the district. Try calling in early morning and late afternoon. Remember to ask for permission before hunting on private properties. Ladd Marsh Wildlife Area Rains and late irrigation water has allowed us to get some water in most of our wetlands. Hunting has been decent with the majority of hunters getting birds and a few getting limits each week. The recent cold snap will extremely limit huntable areas. If La Grande receives a couple days of above freezing weather and wind, water will open up and hunters can have some great opportunities. For more specific water conditions please call the office at 541 963 4954. Hunting waterfowl in and around the grain food plots can be an alternative to hunting wetlands. The wildlife area is closed on Non hunt days but birds can be scouted from county roads. Upland: Hunters are finding pheasants but success has been slow. WALLOWA COUNTY Elk: A few antlerless elk season are running now. Some elk have begun to move to winter ranges, however lack of snow cover at mid elevations means that many elk are still on or near their summer ranges. Forest Grouse: Some ruffed grouse can still be found in draw bottoms with dense brush. Blue grouse are now moving up high into conifer trees to find buds to eat for the winter and so will be hard to find. Cougar: Populations are moderate throughout Wallowa County. Most lions are taken incidental to other hunting; however, calling with fawn bleat, or locating a cougar kill and waiting for a cat to return are often successful techniques. Coyote: Good numbers of coyotes can be found throughout Wallowa County. Calling coyotes with rabbit distress type calls has been effective for hunters. It is important to choose areas with abundant coyote sign and little human activity. UNION COUNTY Ladd Marsh Wildlife Area Mark your calendar: Ladd Marsh Bird Festival begins May 19 with Mark Obmascik, author of Big Year: A Tale of Man, Nature and Fowl Obsession, as featured speaker. Note: All visitors must have in their possession a free daily permit to access the wildlife area . Permits are available at several self-check-in stations at entry points and parking lots. Wildlife viewers and anglers also need a parking permit to park on the wildlife area. The $10 daily or $30 annual permit can be purchased online or at an ODFW office that sells licenses or at a license sales agent. Learn more about ODFW’s Wildlife Area Parking Permit Program. Beginning February 1, all of Ladd Marsh is closed to public entry. The Tule Lake Public Access Area will open to visitors March 1. Visitors are advised to carefully read posted signs and consult the wildlife area administrative rules. Rules that apply to all areas are at the top (at the link), and then scroll down to page 8, #635-008-120, for additional rules specific to Ladd Marsh. Dogs are not permitted within the Wildlife Area, including the Glass Hill Unit, on or off leash except during authorized game bird hunting seasons. There are numerous quality viewing opportunities from county roads that pass through the area. Binoculars or a spotting scope will help as many animals are best viewed from a distance. Red-tailed hawks, rough-legged hawks and northern harriers can be seen perched on poles and fences. Great horned owls can often be seen on power poles at dawn or dusk. American kestrels are common throughout the area and are often seen hunting from perch sites. Other raptors using the area include Cooper’s and sharp-shinned hawks, prairie falcons, and both bald and golden eagles. White-crowned sparrows are present in good numbers and song sparrows are widespread and abundant. Northern shrikes, while not common can be found at various locations on the area. Nearly all ponds and wetlands are locked in ice. Ducks can be seen using grain fields and in flight to and from feeding and loafing areas off the wildlife area. Elk and deer have moved to lower elevations. They can often be seen from county roads by glassing the slopes of Glass Hill or across the flats to the east. Use caution to avoid spooking wildlife into roads or highways for their safety and the safety of the traveling public. 1/23/2017
