Of the five species of Pacific salmon, the Chinook and
Coho are the most important to anglers.
The two are often found in the same waters and pursued
in much the same way, but the Chinook is the larger of the two and
highly prized among anglers. |

Return Timing:
Spring Chinook adults spend three to four years in the
ocean before returning to the hatchery. Averaging 15 pounds and weighing up
to 40 pounds, these fish are a prize catch of anglers on both the
Columbia and Willamette rivers.
The eating quality and flavor of the spring Chinook meat is highly
regarded as some of the best. It contains the most Omega 3 oils of all the
species of salmon. Spring salmon, sometimes referred to as Springers, are available in the Columbia
River and Willamette River March through June.

Summer Chinook
Fishing during the summer doesn't get much better than this, warm days and lots of
fish (4-10 fish days are common). Throw in a few 30- to 40-pound Chinook, and
the wonderful scenery along Oregon's beautiful rivers, and your sure to have a fantastic trip
not soon to be forgotten.

Columbia Upriver Brights
(August-October) In August we begin targeting Columbia Upriver Brights on the
Columbia River from Astoria to
Bonneville Dam.
Intercepting a 35-pound fall salmon bound for Idaho is one a
heck of a battle for both experienced and beginner anglers. In this fishery
boats anchor up in known slots of the river where salmon travel and fish
with spinners and wobblers.
A relaxing way to fish, yet very exciting when a fish slams
your rod and strips line from your reel.
A Fishing License as well as applicable tags should be
obtained prior to your trip.
Prices: Oregon- $12.00 purchase online

Chinook Salmon
Of the five species of Pacific salmon, the Chinook and Coho are the
most important to anglers. The two are often found in the same waters
and pursued in much the same way, but the Chinook is the larger of the
two and highly prized among anglers.
The Columbia River Gorge is a prime area to target
Chinook salmon. When hooked, Chinook like to slug it out, while Coho are
acrobatic and quick.
Chinook are also known as the king salmon or spring
salmon, sometimes misspelled as samon or samen.
Chinook salmon are powerful swimmers that migrate hundreds of miles up
northwest rivers to their spawning grounds, and they can grow huge. The
rod-and-reel world record was taken in Alaska's Kenai River in 1985 and
weighed 97 pounds, 4 ounces. |
Most fish caught by northwest anglers,
however, range from 15 to 40 pounds. At the end of a fishing line,
Chinooks are absolute brutes - hard-running, stubborn fighters that will
give you all the challenge you can handle, and sometimes more.
