Gold River Fishing Lodge - Fishing Report

As of September 3rd

Weather Conditions: After many days of rain we finally are enjoying warm sunny days again.

Inside Fishing: Chinook fishing has been slow except for Moutcha Bay where they are holding before entering the river. More and more, larger then normal coho are being caught on the inside. Also recently the Northern Coho are being caught inside of the surf line.  

Best Times to Fish:
*First light
* An hour before to an after after tide changes
* Evenings from dusk to dark

The hot spot for catching fish can change daily as the fish are scattered, moving and not schooling yet.

Offshore Fishing:
Has been extremely limited due to gail force winds and 3 to 4 meter seas.  Those that ventured off shore have been rewarded for the punishment endured

Facts:
Largest Weighed in Coho - 19 Lbs
Largest Weighed in Chinook - 38 Lbs
Largest Weighed in Halibut - 51 Lbs
Largest Weighed in Ling Cod - 40 Lbs
Largest Weighed in Yellow Eye - 17 Lbs

Tip of the week:
Try cop car 4" spoons, 500 Atomic Plugs, White Hootchies and Anchovies as they are all working on Coho
