Amazing Vedder River Fishing for Coho Salmon using a Prime Lures 18 gram Glory Spoon in Copper and Orange Stripe, this is how you catch coho on a spoon.
While the early run coho seem bigger, these late ones seem super plentiful and eager to bite. They rolled in again this year right on time. They inhabit the lower river for a short time as a big storm caused a high water event, and the fish vacated the lower runs pretty quickly this year.
I never chased them, but I'm sure they're still in the upper river slowly changing color. A great way to target these coho salmon is spoons. This copper and orange striped Glory Spoon really did an amazing job this morning. I started using them a few years ago and have been very satisfied by how effective they are on the river.
I arrived shortly after 8 am in the rain. Found a spot and got to casting. The first spoon I tossed and then a spinner did not trigger any bites. As I was walking in you will see I pass a gentleman who already had a couple hatchery coho on the line using a copper and orange spoon. After a couple failures I went back into the box and dug out my copper and orange stripe spoon. In no time, I was hooked up!
By 9 am, I had landed 3 wild coho and 4 hatchery. A WILD one hour of spoon action. Always nice to have a crazy bite once in a while!
Since I finished up early, I headed to the Cabelas to see if I could find some heavier leader line for Chum fishing. Ended up finding a new Ugly Stik as well.
This is the problem with an early limit... time to shop.
I hope you guys have had a great season and caught some salmon. If not, keep at it. They are still around.
If you want to hear my tips in this video fast forward to @7:10 when another angler came up to chat and see what exactly I was doing to have success on the water. I figured he had questions that many anglers who have never caught a coho on a spoon might want to ask. So I included our little discussion. I hope you find it helpful. I can't recall his name, but thanks for inspiring the little discussion on the water. Not sure if it was luck or our little talk, but something clicked and he started pulling in coho one after another as well. Sometimes being in the right place and the right time does help out a lot as well, as long as you are getting the lure in front of their faces.
