Coho Salmon
Tillamook Bay, easily accessible from Bay City, Oregon, is a Coho salmon hotspot, especially during the fall months (September-November). These acrobatic fish offer exciting action for anglers. Unlike Chinook, Coho often venture further into the bay, so targeting them near the channels and sloughs can be productive. Trolling with spinners, spoons, or hoochies is a common tactic, but mooching with herring can also be effective. A local tip: watch for jumping fish and diving birds, as these are often indicators of where the Coho are feeding. The Garibaldi boat basin is a convenient launch point. Remember to check the daily regulations, as Coho limits can change quickly based on run size. Also, be prepared for potentially crowded conditions during peak season.
