Salmon Fishing With Spinners ~ Late Season Coho & Chinook Salmon

Спорт

Heading back for more spinner fishing for salmon. It's getting late in the season and the coho and chinook salmon are starting to darken. As of this time, the water is still super low and quite clear. With such low flows all throughout the summer and into early fall, there are still a decent number of salmon and steelhead in the system. These are older fish but they are still fun to catch and a little practice never hurts. I didn't see as many fish on the Sandy River as I had opposed to the Clackamas River, but I still managed to land a couple nice native Chinook.
With rain in the forecast I am anticipating that these low flows will quickly disappear and we will be right back to our higher flows for the rest of the season.
The last Chinook that I land on the video was caught with a homemade lure that I had created the night before. I wanted to make something that would better fish these deeper pools and channels. After several attempts with other equipment I switched to my lure and was on a fish within minutes.
I'm going to make a variety of these lures for different conditions and keep field testing them for the winter season.

I've NEVER fished it, but I live less than 15 minutes away. You are perhaps the most HAPPY GO LUCKY guy that I've viewed. I will continue to enjoy future videos. THANKS

Getting feedback and being able to interact with you guys is one of my favorite parts. Thanks for the subscription, I will do my best to keep the videos coming. Definitely give that spot a try in the future, especially during the summer and anytime that there is a strong run on the river.. Steelhead can be targeted just to the right of the area (upriver in the riffles) during winter months. Thanks again, I look forward to hearing how things go for you

    When you are using spinners do you tie direct to the mainline or do you have a lighter leader connected to a swivel in case of snags?

  • @AnglingAddictsPNW

    @AnglingAddictsPNW

    5 жыл бұрын

    Typically I'm using braided line, so I will use a swivel and then a lighter leader and will tie directly to the leader. If you are using a mono/fluoro main line, you can tie directly to the spinner but I've always preferred a swivel or something to avoid line twist, though spinners already have a swivel I've noticed that there is still potential for line twist without a swivel. I use really small swivels that are rated for 30lbs

I have nothing against fishing straight mono or fluorocarbon or using a double uni knot in place of a swivel. I almost always run 30lb braid, it allows for multiple uses and depending on the water conditions I will swap from 12lb-20lb My most typical being a 20lb fluorocarbon 12lb if it’s crystal clear

    Hey Pablo, welcome to the world of fishing!! There are a lot of good spots along both rivers.. the best thing to do is get out there and explore. Its really hard to say where a "good spot" is because those are always dependent on the conditions, time of year, and things simply just change. The parks are usually the best place to start but unless you have a parking pass you are having to pay $5 every time and that adds up quick. If you can find any spot that pulls off the road and has access to the river, I'd fish it and it just may turn into one of YOUR new spots

    Are you gonna be out Sunday morning? There’s a homeless guy that lives in his van in the park across the street from me. I’ve been taking him/teaching him how to fish. He is SUPER stoked but neither of us have caught anything in awhile. Hopefully this rain will help. I’m thinking about starting at Oxbow and working our way down on Sunday morning.

    TheWallman456 I was looking for this message lastnight.. That is really cool of you to do man. Unfortunately I won’t be around on Sunday but can always try to point you in the right direction.. but definitely start as high as you can and work your way down.. if it’s decent daylight, fish deeper and near boulders and any sort of structure or cover.. there are chinook around and they don’t move a whole lot during the middle of the day.. and use small presentations if you are using a bobber and jig. As for spinners I highly recommend #5 blue fox vibrax

    AnglingAddictsPNW There was a tree blocking the boat ramp so we ended up below the bathrooms . Water was muddy but I got a bobber down on eggs but it got off. Rain got too hard so we left after 2 hours. We DID have a lot of fun. I make my own spinners, mostly 4 and 4.5 ... a few 5s. I use R and B components. The torpedoes and the ones that look like blue fox. I’ve caught more fish on those than any other lure/bait.

    Ricardo Simmonds - do you or have you had any luck with a bobber and jig? When I fish spinners, I almost always cast upriver a little and my line even gets caught in the current and drags my lure down river, if it’s done right, your lure will be further down in the water column and you can basically get your lure to go down river, while it’s facing you and with good action on the spinner... if that all makes sense.. EVERY salmon that I have hooked so far with a spinner this year has been done that way and they usually hit it while it’s still up river or straight out from me. Your chances of snagging increase but you chance of hooking a fish may increase as well.. it takes some practice but it has definitely been working for me.. I do feel as though I have some luck on my side lol, though I put in countless time and effort learning these rivers and how things change with different runs, conditions, and the time of year. Keep at it, keep learning and things are bound to change for ya

    AnglingAddictsPNW only tried that for steelhead but yeah I get it you are swinging the spinner I just can’t get a damn salmon to bite. I caught two Kings at dodge park twitching but haven’t gotten bit since and that was weeks ago so I’m due for a tug. I make my own spinners with hoochie skirts like you but I just haven’t found a hot fish willing to hit one. Hopefully this rain changes my luck I just gotta keep at it.

    I had some good success last year with the twitching jig and the strikes are always exciting. I hooked a King yesterday with the bobber and jig and a tiny chunk or roe that was leftover from someone. If they are being timid with the spinner then id definitely recommend trying the bobber and jig (either solo or with additional bait) and hit those deeper channels and pools where the water current obviously slows... mine have all been within 20 feet of me when I've hooked them. Thats awesome that you make your own spinners as well, it definitely saves money, im still going to buy Bluefox but the rest will be made. Im hoping the rain changes things as well!! I should be back out on the water shortly and hopefully back on some fish.. I'm definitely looking forward to Winter Steelhead.... Thanks for the feedback Ricardo, its always appreciated
