primetime: This is the time of year when action is the name of the game. This is known as COHO-MANIA. With the waters warming up along the shore, the bait fish come in to the shallow water and the Coho and King Salmon follow them in. We also get great catches of Brown, Rainbow/Steelhead and Lake Trout. Most catches will be limits of Coho, but some the larger Kings are caught this time of the year.

summer time: Nice warm weather to make the deep water runes. This is the time of the year that the bait fish start to move to the deeper cooler water and the Coho and King Salmon move with them. When we fish the deep water you will get a good mixed catch of fish, which will include, Lake Trout, Rainbow/Steelhead Trout, Brown Trout, Coho and King Salmon. Our catches that time of the year average 20 fish per trip, and the size and weight of the fish will have the cooler full.

I hope this gives you a better idea, and assistance in selecting your charter dates. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to call, or Email for more information.
