Chinook Salmon
Chinook Salmon fishing near Long Beach, Washington, offers anglers the chance to tangle with some truly impressive fish in the Pacific Northwest. The key to success here is understanding the salmon's migratory patterns and focusing on areas where they are actively feeding. The Columbia River estuary and the nearshore waters are prime locations. The best time to target Chinook is typically during the late summer and early fall as they stage before entering the river to spawn. A local tip: trolling with herring or spinners near the mouth of the Columbia River can be highly effective. Also, pay close attention to the tide charts, as Chinook often move with the tides. Be aware of the regulations regarding salmon retention and ensure you have the proper licenses and endorsements. Success often depends on adapting to the ever-changing conditions and being willing to put in the time to find the fish.
