That is great news but what I wonder is how the cohos will look that late in the season though?
Probably pretty damn knarly:lol:.
Thats kind of what I'm thinking, maybe still be ok for egg collecting but then again they might be to far along even for that.
So even though they haven't moved up they are deteriorating? Makes sense since they were holding in the river.
Do these fish get up into the B10 area and ever go back to saltwater due to poor timing? Lets say that the river isn't right and they hold for a while, will they ever decide that they shouldn't have come in and turn back around to wait for better timing. Or do they move in and continue up and if conditions aren't right in the feeder creek, simply find the closest gravel bar no matter when and where they are and just let nature take its course?
I've been fishing the clack for weeks now and other than a few coho here and there it seems that the fish really haven't made the big push up to the mouth of EC. I would contend that the vast majority of fish are milling about between Meldrum on the Willamette and Carver. Unfortunately their isn't a fish counting station from B10 to Eagle Creek so it's hard to say.
I think I'm going to switch my focus to the Sandy...probably out of ignorance or poor fishing skill that I haven't seen a lot of action from the Clack but it just seems like their not on the bite/move here.
