Coho salmon lives in Oregon. Today's bite forecast, a day-by-day and hour-by-hour activity calendar, best time and baits.
Wednesday, September 2
The bite is strong — fish are active. A thunderstorm is possible: activity rises before the front and drops after.
Best time — 06:00–08:00 (dawn bite) and 19:00–21:00 (dusk bite).
Work the cover — snags, weed edges, hole entrances; retrieve the lure with pauses.
The water's turning murky — go with bright, noisy lures: trolling spoon or spinner.
Bring a warm jacket — it's noticeably colder on the water than on shore. A thunderstorm is possible — bring a rain jacket, and pack up at the first rumble of thunder.
Worth going — it's a productive day.
The computed water temperature is around 60 °F — warmer than the 43–59 °F comfort range for Coho salmon: in the heat it drops deeper and feeds less often.
Coho salmon works the twilight: the peaks are pinned to sunrise and sunset — their times are in the sun-and-moon card above.
Pressure is rising 0.15 inHg over the day — the bite usually settles down after a rise.
September is peak season for Coho salmon here.
These are the same values the bite curve above was computed from. How the forecast works
Drizzle · feels like +41°
The day is 3 min shorter than yesterday.
Sunshine hours count direct sun only — cloud cover cuts it, so it is shorter than daylight.
The windows are set by the moon's transit and rise, and the forecast above already accounts for them: within these hours the bite score sits higher than across the rest of the day, while the day's overall level still comes from the catch-calibrated model.
