Chinook and coho fishing in the bay has really slowed, and with the recent rain and associated river rise we are seeing a lot of fish moving up river. The best fishing for Chinook this week on the Nehalem basin will probably be in the lower mainstem and lower North Fork. The upper deadline for salmon fishing on the Nehalem mainstem is the Foss Rd (CC) bridge located at river mile 15.
In addition to getting some Chinook, there are still hatchery coho moving into the North Fork Nehalem, many fish are getting dark, but there are still a few decent fish around.
