The Coho Season is Here!

I am currently booking for the 2026 Coho Season: August 16 - October 31

Our 2026 coho (silver) season on the Skagit has started up and we’re catching fish! I anticipate the entire fishing season will be awesome on the river, and I highly suggest you get out for this fishery.

Note: The season may tentatively be extended through November/December. I will waive the deposit and schedule a date that works for you during this timeframe. Just understand your trip cannot be guaranteed until the season extension is announced by WDFW in October.

Fishing on the Skagit:

Salmon fishing on the Skagit River brings strong seasonal runs that make each trip a great time. We target whatever species is in season and fishing well — coho, pinks, kings or sockeye. Each species brings its own pace, technique, and excitement. The river itself is rather scenic and quiet, creating a great way to escape outdoors.

I run Lamiglas Infinity rods made right here in Washington and Shimano Stradic reels to give you the best opportunity, feel, and fight when you hook a fish. I prefer fishing with spinners and spoons for salmon but will throw other gear at them on occasion.

Coho (Silvers) - Our fall coho season starts up in September and runs through fall. These are a hard-fighting fish that provide a great experience for all anglers. This is my most favorite fishery on the Skagit.

Pinks (Humpies) - The pink (humpy) run occurs on odd years only and runs August-October. It brings in an enormous number of fish. You can expect easy, constant action and super-fast limits.

Sockeye - Sockeye season is a steadily growing fishery from mid-June thru July. This is a good opportunity to catch these tasty fish.

Chinook (Kings) - The chinook season runs late April thru Mid-July. Chinook are big, powerful, early-season fish that test your gear and your grin.

Chum - Big fish that show up in late fall. However, we have no recreational season and rarely see them.

Dolly Varden / Bull Trout - Not salmon of course, but we can go after these depending on the time of year.

Steelhead - I don’t target steelhead on the Skagit, but we do incidentally see one occasionally while fishing. It is exclusively a catch-and-release fishery.

Sturgeon - We get some good-sized sturgeon in the Skagit! It is exclusively a catch-and-release fishery.
