I returned from Mongolia at the end of September to find the steelhead action peaking on all the local rivers. The McKenzie and Willamette have been fishing very well, and the Deschutes is also stacked. Guided trips on all these systems have been excellent. Recent rains are bringing salmon in to the coastal rivers.  
 
Bottom line: If you haven't gotten out there this month, you are totally blowing it!
