Ocean Salmon Fishing Report – July 5th, 2025. The day after the country celebrated independence day the coho put on some fireworks of their own! Getting an early start didn’t seem to matter with these guys. Counting travel time we had 4 nice coho in the boat within about 2 hours of leaving the dock. That also included doing a couple of wild fish releases. We also had several lost fish and short bites which kept us on the edge of our seats. Oregon Tackle Spinner Blades and Brad’s “Hotter Tamale” Super Baits were our winning ticket.
We didn’t run into any Chinook. A friend of mine reported finding them at 160 feet on the downrigger. I left mine at home but I’m going to bring it next time for sure!
I’m looking forward to Wednesday when we have the next best shot at getting good weather. I have seats available so I’m hoping to meet some new friends who want to play hookie from work!
I don’t share all of my secrets here so you have to come fishing if you want to learn them! If you can’t make it, stay tuned for my next Ocean Salmon Fishing Report!
