Chinook Salmon
If you're hoping to hook into a Chinook salmon, Copalis Beach offers a dynamic saltwater fishing experience. The key to success here lies in understanding the salmon's migratory patterns and the local baitfish activity. Chinook are often found cruising nearshore waters as they stage before heading up rivers to spawn. The prime time for Chinook fishing near Copalis Beach is typically during the summer months, particularly July and August. Trolling with herring or spoons is a popular technique. Also, keep an eye on your fish finder for schools of baitfish, as Chinook are rarely far behind. A local access point is the Copalis River, but be aware of tide restrictions for launching. Another tip: pay attention to the water temperature, as Chinook tend to prefer cooler waters, so adjusting your depth accordingly can be crucial.
