Coho Salmon
Intercepting Coho salmon off Manhattan Beach requires understanding their migratory patterns and preferred habitat. Similar to Chinook, the late summer and fall offer the best chances, as Coho move along the coast. Look for areas with cooler water temperatures and abundant baitfish – anchovies and sardines are key forage species. Trolling is a popular method, using flashers and spoons to attract the Coho. Pay attention to tide changes, as these can trigger feeding activity. A practical piece of advice: focus on areas where there are upwellings, as these bring nutrient-rich water to the surface, attracting baitfish and, in turn, salmon. Launching from nearby marinas provides access to these offshore fishing grounds. Keep in mind that Coho salmon runs can fluctuate from year to year, so staying updated on the latest fishing reports is essential. Be sure to accurately identify your catch, as regulations for Coho can differ from Chinook.
