Mid/South coast salmon report? (new guy)

Hi, I am new to ifish. I'm from Eugene and like to fish in the high lakes, for sturgeon in the Columbia
the Siuslaw and Alsea for steelhead, and now that I got a new 20' Koffler Bay-Bee, in the ocean as
well.
I was looking at going to the coast tomorrow and was looking for some salmon reports for
Newport, Florence, Winchester Bay or Coos Bay
Thanks Mark

I just talked to a buddy of mine that went on a charter down south. I'm guessing it was somewhere around Winchester. Anyway, for 12 people, they all limited by noon. I think the tally was 15 chinook and 9 silvers. About 7 unclipped silvers were released. By the sounds of all reports, the fishing is good up and down the coast on big blue. You should be able to scare up some fish regardless of where you go.
