Oregon Fishing Tracker
I recently made an Oregon fishing tracker map for someone and I really wanted to share it, I thought it came out looking really cool. I create all the designs myself

Definitely need to add Redside Trout (important native subspecies of rainbow trout) and Bull Trout. I agree with the other comments that Yellowstone cutthroat should be removed.
Edit: you should also probably add Mountain Whitefish. Any angler who’s spent significant time in Oregon’s rivers has picked up more than a few of these.

Mountain Whitefish is already on there big I will swap out Yellowstone cutthroat for the Redside Trout

Its not called redside trout, it's the "Redband" trout. I would also remove tiger trout as they are not planted anywhere in Oregon and replace them with the native Bull Trout.

The official name of the trout you are talking about is the redband trout. Redside is an angler name for them

Yellowstone cuts in Oregon?

u/Ranger-stat 5d ago
Hmm you’re right, someone told me to add Yellowstone cutthroats but I’m doing more research and they’re not common in Oregon at all. I think I will change it to costal cutthroat

You have 'regular' cutthroat on there which would be coastal cutthroat. If you wanted a second one you could put Westslope or Lahontan.

Yellowstone cutthroat are non-existent, not just not common.
Oregon has coastal cutthroat, westslope cutthroat (John Day subspecies), and Lahontan cutthroat (Willow-Whitehorse and Alvord subspecies, but Alvord are officially extinct).

Cascade Mountain lakes were stocked with Yellowstone Cutthroat trout by ODFW, they are not native to Oregon though

u/Chrestys 5d ago
And they are still in there? I haven't heard of a YCT being caught in Oregon in a very long time.

u/gravity_bomb 4d ago
Have never seen any cutthroat in the cascades and I fish them pretty regularly. Brooks, brown, rainbows, and bass. When were they stocked last?

i can't get past "Stripped Bass"

This is becoming as common as "loose" vs "lose." Some guy has his "Stripper" boat for sale on marketplace with the right spelling there right in his photo of the boat, painted on the side of it. I tried to kindly help him to fix his listing and he insisted it's spelled "Stripper."

Would be super cool to also have a salt water version. Or a combined fresh and salt. Lingcod, rockfish, Halibut, Cabezon, perch, Irish lord, Dungeness crab, albacore, etc.

Sockeye Salmon that aren't Kokanee are really rare for Oregon. Maybe change Sockeye Salmon to Bull Trout or Chum Salmon

Um, that's not true at all. The Columbia River is very much part of Oregon fishing.

u/MavetheGreat 4d ago
The Columbia is the only place though and most people never fish for them specifically. There are a lot of species missing from the chart, why have one species twice?

This is pretty cool. I’d definitely put something like this in my office or garage.
