Silver Salmon (Coho)

Silver Salmon, also called Coho, join the other four species during the month of August. The charge of adrenaline you’ll feel from a top-water take to a subsurface stripped fly is a sensation mere words can’t describe. We describe our silver fishing as ‘world-class’ due to the sheer numbers, quality and action our Cohos deliver.

Recommended Gear

Rods: We recommend 7 weight to 9 weight quality rods with actions that are well-suited for casting in windy conditions.

Reels: Durable reels with a medium to strong disc drag are necessary. Spool capacity should be at least 150 yards of 20 pound backing.

Lines: A floating line along with at least one sink tip is usually best. Sink tips should be 5 feet to 15 feet with a medium to fast sink rate.

Leaders: 10 to 15 pound monofilament
