Coho Salmon
Silver Salmon, or Coho, fishing near Ketchikan really heats up in late summer and early fall. As they stage to enter local rivers and creeks, they become incredibly aggressive. The waters around Clover Pass and Knudson Cove are prime locations to intercept these feisty fish. Trolling with brightly colored spoons or spinners is a popular and effective technique. Don't be afraid to use pinks, oranges, and chartreuse colors, especially on overcast days. Coho are known for their acrobatic leaps, so be ready for an exciting fight! A local tip: many anglers find success mooching herring near the shoreline as the tide changes. Also, be sure to check the ADF&G website for any emergency order closures on specific rivers before heading out.
