I have been fishing Lake Oroville for Coho salmon this last week and it has been fantastic. We have been catching easy limits and releasing unharmed fish. The fish are from 15 to 20 inches and very fat. They jump, dart and strip off line. Very fun. I am using custom made rods using an 8 foot 4 wt fly rod blank on the down riggers which makes for a very fun fight. Give me a call and come fish with me, you won't be disappointed. I am offering these trips for $125.00 each, two to four people. I provide everything but the beer. Show up at the dam at 6 or 7 am and we will fish to around noon. Today we had a triple hook up which makes for a cluster but it doesn't get any better than that. fish on chinook, no, Coho

These smaller males love the cut bait and you can get steady action trying to get keeper size fish. We can no longer get jumbo minnows. The bait shops tell me they have a disease...... Read More
