According to Martin, salmon fishing picked up at the mouth of the Chetco before this week’s rain. “Stormy weather, with a rough bar and gusting south winds, stalled action for a few days, but conditions are expected to be prime by week’s end. A mix of wild and hatchery adults and jacks are being caught. A few jacks also have been caught upriver on bobbers. Despite the rain, the Chetco is still well below drifts levels for boats above tidewater. 
Coho salmon fishing has been good on the Rogue Bay, where kings also are still showing up in the catch. Fishing has slowed, however, as the main long run blasts upstream.”
