Coho Salmon
Silver Salmon, or Coho, fishing near Homer, Alaska, is a late-summer and early-fall highlight for many anglers. These acrobatic fish provide exhilarating action in the waters of Kachemak Bay and beyond. While Kings get the early attention, Coho arrive in force from August through September. Look for them near creek mouths and along the beaches as they prepare to enter freshwater. Trolling with brightly colored spoons or spinners is a popular and effective technique. Fly fishing can also be productive, especially in the calmer waters. A local trick is to use a flasher ahead of your lure or fly to attract the Coho's attention. The water clarity can vary, so be prepared to adjust your presentation accordingly. The Coho in this region are known for their aggressive strikes and spirited fights, making them a favorite among anglers. Don't overlook the opportunity to fish the incoming tide as the Coho follow the baitfish closer to shore.
