“Salmon fishing was fair on the Chetco last week, with low, clear water and bobbers only, followed by high, dirty conditions to begin the all-tackle portion of the season,” said Andy Martin of Wild Rivers Fishing. “Lots of salmon are spread throughout the river, which dropped back into shape Tuesday evening. Conditions should be good through the rest of the week.”
