Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 15:12 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

Fishing Overview Grants Pass

Grants Pass fishing centers on the famous middle Rogue River, a broad, boulder-studded stretch that delivers consistent action for salmon, steelhead, trout, and warmwater species. Easy access from town, multiple boat ramps, and a mix of riffles, runs, and deep pools make this one of southern Oregon’s most versatile fisheries.

Seasonally, the Rogue around Grants Pass fishes differently month by month. Spring brings in spring Chinook and the tail end of winter steelhead; focus on deeper travel lanes and soft seams with heavy lead and bait or plugs. As water warms, resident rainbow and cutthroat trout feed aggressively in riffles and pockets, taking spinners, small spoons, and nymphs. Summer sees the arrival of summer steelhead; dawn and dusk are prime for swinging flies or drifting small clusters of eggs through shaded slots. Warm, stable flows also fire up smallmouth bass in rocky, mid-river structure.

In fall, the Grants Pass reach shines. Fall Chinook and, in some years, Coho salmon move through deeper holes and at the heads and tails of pools. Back-trolling plugs such as Mag Lips or FlatFish, or drifting cured eggs under a float, are proven producers. Cooling water also pushes steelhead into classic holding water: 3–6 feet deep with walking-speed current. This shoulder season is ideal for side-drifting, bobber-dogging, or swinging traditional steelhead flies and modern intruders. Winter brings higher flows and color to the Rogue; target inside bends, eddies, and slower seams where winter steelhead and resident trout tuck out of the heavy current.

The Rogue around Grants Pass offers a wide range of habitat types. Long tailouts, mid-river boulder gardens, ledge rock, and defined seams are all key structures. Productive bank spots often feature a visible current break: a line where fast and slow water meet. Boat anglers can work longer drifts, but bank anglers do well by thoroughly covering each small piece of holding water from different angles.

Common techniques include drift fishing, side-drifting from sleds or drift boats, bobber-dogging with yarnies or bait, and back-trolling plugs for salmon and steelhead. Light-to-medium spinning or casting outfits with 10–15 lb mainline and appropriately sized leaders handle most Rogue situations. For trout and smallmouth bass, scale down to 6–8 lb line, 1/8–1/4 oz jigs, small inline spinners, and 2–4 inch soft plastics fished near rock and current seams.

Nearby ponds and small lakes around Grants Pass provide stillwater options for trout, bass, crappie, and panfish. These waters respond well to basic tactics: slip bobbers with worms, small jigs tipped with bait, and tiny crankbaits along weed edges at dawn and dusk. Focus on points, submerged timber, and any visible cover.

Tactically, success around Grants Pass hinges on reading water and adapting to clarity. In clear flows, downsize presentations and use longer leaders; in off-color water, go with brighter patterns, larger profiles, and a slower presentation tight to structure. Cover water methodically, fish early and late when boat pressure is high, and key in on subtle seams and transition zones rather than obvious “community holes.”
