The Chetco estuary fished surprisingly well last week, with many boats getting multiple fish reports Martin. “It is still early, with the best estuary fishing at the end of September and early October,” he said. “The Rogue Bay is fair for salmon, with a mix of jacks and larger adults. Salmon fishing has improved near Grants Pass, and indication much of the fall run has already moved through the bay.”
