Salmon

<p><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. If you would like to book give us a call (541)-430-1013 or Book Online at SOAcharters.com</div></p>

Small Mouth Basd

Small mouth bass fishing continues to heat up on the main Umpqua with 100 plus fish days. Yesterday myself and two clients spent about 6 hours drift fishing and sitting on anchor hammering these things. We boated close to fifty and the clients took about 20 home for family taco night. We used ultra lite gear which added to the excitement of reeling these fish in.
