Idaho Fish Report

Fishing is Picking Up a Little

The Nehalem gets an early component of the fall Chinook run sometimes referred to as "summer Chinook" and those fish are starting to show up. Fishing is picking up a little with some fish being caught and a decent bite last weekend. Overall, it is still slow but should continue to improve throughout August and September. Trolling with flashers and spinners seems to be the go-to technique for this fishery, but trolling herring is always a good option for Chinook as well.‌

There are cutthroat trout throughout the Nehalem basin and sea-run cutthroat trout have been moving through tidewater, they should be migrating into the rivers and streams this time of year. Fishing early morning when the water is cooler and fish are more active will up the odds of success.
