Coho Salmon
Chasing Coho near Port Orford offers a unique Oregon coast experience. The Coho here are known for their aggressive strikes as they stage near the Elk River and Sixes River estuaries before their upstream spawning runs. Timing is everything; the late summer and early fall months, particularly September and October, are prime. Keep a close eye on river conditions – heavy rains can blow out the rivers, but also trigger fresh runs of fish. Focus your efforts where the saltwater meets the fresh, using spinners, spoons, or bait like herring. Be prepared to adjust your depth and presentation based on the water clarity and current. A local tip: check the tide charts and fish the incoming tide for increased activity. Also, be mindful of regulations regarding wild vs. hatchery Coho.
