Default I need Chinook Help

I have a friend that would like to get a King. The runs that I am aware of here in SW Wash are over. I keep hearing you Oregon folks talk about your great late King Run. I have a 21' sled anyplace that I could go next week and have a good shot at some Kings??

Tillamook Bay will have late chinook arriving into the first of December. The run definetly slows down and fish become harder to find. Most of the fish are caught in the Wilson river by then but they do have to move through the bay first.

The rains this week should push a bunch of fish into the river. Hard to say what'll be left but river height is key. Just keep an eye on the board here for the latest reports.

best of luck,

Gregg

Jim, I tied up right now, but would suggest contacting Jen w/ ifish. She lives on the coast, is nuts about fishing, and the rivers on the coast are blowing out as we speak. On the first drop, bigggggg kings will be all over the coastal rivers, and on the move. We've had low water all season. This will be a major shot if you can hit it right. Any of the Tillamook Bay Rivers. You might want to find a drift boat though?? Contact "The Guide Shop" at Tillamook for a daily up to date water/fish conditions.
