Chinook Salmon
While Commercial Point, Ohio, is inland, pursuing Chinook Salmon involves understanding the Lake Erie tributary system. The salmon make their way up these rivers during their fall spawning run. While the run isn't as prominent as in some other Great Lakes states, a dedicated angler can find success. Focus your efforts on the larger rivers that flow into Lake Erie, making their way up as far as they can. The peak of the run is typically in September and October. Use brightly colored spoons, spinners, or egg sacs to entice strikes. Be prepared for some tough fighting; these fish are powerful! Access can be challenging in some areas, so research public access points and consider hiring a local guide who knows the river well. Check the Ohio Department of Natural Resources website for current regulations and fish consumption advisories. Remember to practice ethical catch-and-release if you're not planning to keep your catch.
