Coho Salmon
Chasing Coho in the Coos Bay area offers a unique blend of river and bay opportunities. The Coos River and its tributaries see strong Coho runs, especially from late summer through fall. These fish are keyed in on the abundant forage in the bay, so herring imitations and spinners work well. Pay close attention to water clarity; Coho can be skittish in clear water, so early mornings or overcast days are prime. A key tip: focus your efforts around the tide changes, as Coho often move with the tides. For river access, try the numerous boat launches along Highway 101, north and south of Coos Bay. Be prepared to adjust your depth and retrieve speed, as the Coos River experiences strong currents and varying temperatures. The Coho here are known for their aggressive strikes, so hold on tight!
