According to Martin, after a weekend of hot fishing in the Chetco estuary, a bump in flows this week could send fish upriver. “Lots of jacks are being caught on bobbers and eggs or sand shrimp at Tide Rock and Social Security Bar. Bobbers must be used above the power lines just upstream from the Highway 101 bridge until Nov. 4. A bigger rise in flows is expected next week. In the estuary, fishing has been good along the jetties. Anglers fishing for lingcod and rockfish also are encountering plenty of salmon in the ocean, a good sign for the peak of the run later this month and in early November. Salmon fishing has slowed on the Rogue Bay, but there are a few kings and hatchery coho around.”
