Chinook Salmon
Of the five species of Pacific salmon, the Chinook salmon and Coho
salmon are the most
important to anglers. The two are often found in the same waters and
pursued in much the same way, but the Chinook is the larger of the two
and highly prized among anglers. When hooked, Chinook like to slug it
out, while Coho's are acrobatic and quick. Chinook are also known as the
king salmon or spring salmon. Chinook are powerful swimmers that migrate
hundreds of miles up northwest rivers to their spawning grounds, and
they can grow huge. The rod-and-reel world record was taken in Alaska's
Kenai River in 1985 and weighed 97 pounds, 4 ounces. Most fish caught by
northwest anglers, however, range from 15 to 40 pounds. At the end of a
fishing line, Chinooks are absolute brutes - hard-running, stubborn
fighters that will give you all the challenge you can handle, and
sometimes more. The north coast of Oregon provides some of the best
fishing in the state, with easy access to both the Columbia River and
Pacific ocean where huge runs of fish return each year.
