Looking for someone who knows the ins and outs of boat salmon fishing who would like to go with me out of Scappoose Bay this year and spring 2021. I am currently a 1 man show and have a hard time finding people who actually show up to fish. If you know how to bait lines and run a reel, lets...

Hey All, I'm new to salmon fishing and I'm gearing up for the fall/winter season. Been watching a lot of YouTube on the technique (spinner, drift/float & Mooching), but have no idea where and when. Seems like I read conflicting regulations online vs in the booklet- looks like Chinook are ok...

Natural abundance has its limits, especially when you dam the path to the breeding grounds-- as was the case with the giant Chinook salmon of the Pacific northwest. Seeing their enormous silvery forms leaping upriver is a miraculous sight in some of this archival footage, but a fish can’t leap...

I need some advice for bank fishing for coho on SS beach in Oregon.

Hello, I will be in the area in early April (4/4/20 to 4/10/20) and was trying to determine if I would be able to attempt to fish for Spring Chinook from shore at the mouth of the Alsea River. Needing information the ODWF rules as well as what lures to use? Glen B.

My friend and I had fished for trout all day and caught nothing. I then decided to try and catch a pikeminnow at that deep hole on b street. We still had some bass swimbaits tied onto our lines and decided to see if the pikeminnows would go after them. After about the third cast I hooked a fish...

Probably a dumb question, but I'm curious XD.

data just posted, with 1 week left, just 38K of the 90K quota has been caught. The Non-selective "Any Ocean Coho" season starts Aug31-Sept1, then is open each Fri-Sun after that until the quota is gone. I hope we get some quota rolled over to bump up the initial 9K, it sure would be nice to...

Has anybody tried any Chinook finishing in the ocean yet, especially out of Winchester Bay? I have a few more weeks of getting things done then I will hopefully be on the hunt. I will be out of Winchester in the small Black North River

For four or five trips, only managed one, native, released after quick photo. In the Multnomah Channel May 04, 2019, I hope the coho run is as good as predicted.
