Coho Salmon
Newport, Oregon, offers some fantastic opportunities to intercept Coho salmon as they stage nearshore before entering the coastal rivers. The key here is understanding the salmon's migratory patterns and the influence of the ocean. Fall is prime time, particularly September and October, when Coho are actively feeding on abundant baitfish. Focus your efforts near the Yaquina Bay entrance and along the coastline, paying close attention to areas with kelp beds and current seams. These areas concentrate bait and attract salmon. Local tip: Trolling with brightly colored spinners or spoons can be effective, but don't overlook the power of natural presentations like herring or anchovies, especially when the water is clear. Be prepared to adjust your depth frequently, as Coho often suspend at different levels depending on water temperature and current. Remember that bar crossings at Yaquina Bay can be hazardous, so always check the marine forecast before heading out.
