Coho Salmon
For Coho salmon, Blakely Island in the San Juan Islands presents a fantastic opportunity, especially during the late summer and early fall months. These acrobatic fish are a blast to catch, and the scenic backdrop makes for an unforgettable fishing trip. Unlike Chinook, Coho are often found closer to the surface, so mooching or trolling without downriggers can be very productive. Look for them near kelp beds and tide rips where they ambush baitfish. A local secret is to use brightly colored lures and flashers, as Coho are known for their aggressive strikes. The waters around Blakely Island can get busy during peak season, so arriving early to secure your spot is recommended. Also, be prepared for changing weather conditions, as the San Juans can be unpredictable. Many anglers launch from nearby Orcas or Lopez Islands for easier access. Remember to consult the current WDFW regulations for specific area closures and gear restrictions.
