Coho Salmon
The Coho run in Willapa Bay near Bay Center is a thrilling experience for any angler. This area is characterized by its shallow, brackish waters, influencing Coho habits. October and November are peak months, when silvers flood into the bay, chasing baitfish. Unlike deeper ocean fisheries, the Coho here often hold in shallower areas, especially around creek mouths and sloughs entering the bay. A crucial local tip: use smaller lures and flies than you might typically use for ocean Coho. These fish are often keyed in on smaller forage like sand shrimp and juvenile herring. Try casting spinners or drifting flies in the slower-moving water near shore. Also, be aware of the water clarity – the clearer the water, the more subtle your presentation needs to be. The Coho here are known for their aggressive strikes, making for exciting action in this unique estuarine environment.
