Coho Salmon
Silver or Coho Salmon fishing near Anchorage is a thrilling experience, especially as they stage in the saltwater before heading upriver. While Anchorage itself doesn't have immediate access to prime Coho fishing, nearby areas like the Little Susitna River and the saltwater estuaries where it meets Cook Inlet offer fantastic opportunities. August and September are peak months, as these fish are aggressive and readily take lures and flies. A productive technique is to troll or cast bright spinners and spoons in the lower reaches of the rivers or along the shoreline. Watch for schools of baitfish, as the Coho won't be far behind. Several boat launches provide access to these areas, but be mindful of the tides, which can be extreme in Cook Inlet. The Coho in this region are known for their acrobatic leaps and hard fights, making them a favorite among anglers. Remember to consult the ADF&G regulations, as bag limits and gear restrictions can vary depending on the specific location.
