Good fishing at times in the Chetco estuary indicates a big fall run upriver once rains arrive reports Andy Martin of Wild Rivers Fishing. He said, “The area along the jetties has been producing kings to 30 pounds. Guides are averaging a fish per rod. Bigger schools are staging just offshore, as anglers targeting rockfish are reporting large numbers of salmon begging released while bottom fishing. The hatchery-to-wild ratio is nearly 50-50.”
