Chinook are spread throughout the river. Anglers will want to check the weather and river height prior to fishing. The river fishes better a day or two after a good rain. If conditions allow, anglers will find good fishing at the mouth of the river targeting fresh Chinook moving into the estuary.

The best way for anglers to access the mouth of the river is through Cape Blanco State Park. Anglers will want to check the marine forecast as the mouth of the river is affected by surf and tides. Anglers can only retain hatchery Chinook in the river.
