Coho Salmon
Chasing Coho near Deer Island, Oregon, means understanding the Columbia River's influence. This area, where the river meets the Pacific's tidal reach, offers unique opportunities for intercepting these migrating salmon. The best action typically occurs during the fall Coho run, as fish stage before heading upriver. Success hinges on matching your presentation to the prevalent forage – herring imitations are a solid starting point. Water clarity can fluctuate dramatically, so carry a range of lure colors and sizes. A key local tip is to monitor the river's outflow; a slight increase in flow can trigger a surge in Coho activity. Focus your efforts around channel edges and deeper holes where Coho hold to conserve energy. Also, be aware of the regulations specific to the Columbia River and its tributaries, as they can change frequently to protect fish stocks.
