Coho Salmon

Salmon

<div>Afternoon salmon and crabbing trips with the added benefit of avoiding early morning starts. The non-selective salmon season, meaning all coho salmon can be kept, begins on September 1st, and the current salmon are already of good size and will be larger by then. We run frequent double trips due to quick limits, making it a good option for those who prefer afternoon fishing and want to bring home a catch.

SOA Charters The Ultimate Fishing Charter Experience from Oregon

About the Captain's: Captain Travis holds a six-pack charter license, is CPR/First Aid certified, and is a TWIC cardholder. His fishing journey began in Washington State, where he grew up fishing local waters and the Pacific Ocean with his parents. He moved to Oregon in 1991 and began fishing the Rogue River before eventually settling in the scenic Umpqua Valley with his wife and three children. It wasn’t long before he started targeting salmon, steelhead, and bass in the Umpqua River. He also developed a passion for deep-sea fishing off the Oregon Coast, refining his skills through dedication, hands-on experience, and mentorship from seasoned experts. His lifelong love for fishing was inspired by his late mother, Granny Jean, an avid angler who instilled her passion in him at a young age. Captain Tom A graduate from South Umpqua High School in Myrtle Creek, OR. Tom joined the United States Marine Corps in 2007 where he served six years as a Helicopter Mechanic. In 2013 he was medically retired after an 11 month battle with bone cancer. He has spent most of his life fishing from the beginning in the reservoirs of Colorado, to the Pacific Ocean. His true passion is chasing Anadromous fish in the Pacific northwest. Steelhead lead the way particularly due to the fact that’s how he cut his teeth on big fish! “Nothing makes you feel more alive then a cold winter morning, reel screaming with a giant Umpqua steelhead on the other end of the line.” As a senior in high school Tom learned that people got paid to take people fishing for Salmon and Steelhead….. and he has been chasing that dream since! The Boat: Captain Travis’s Hewescraft 28' 250 Alaskan is a top-tier vessel designed for Oregon fishing adventures. Built in 2020, this state-of-the-art boat is powered by twin 150-horsepower Yamaha engines and offers superior comfort and performance for charter fishing in Winchester Bay, Oregon.
