Many of my best coho days have been dirty water days. The fish feel safe and are more willing to bite. I find that with gear there might be only 1 fish in 50 that actually wants to bite a lure, so you just have to move around and show the lure to a lot of fish. Those that want it really want it though. A influencers, I think we all need to put an emphasis on not dragging wild coho up on the beach, have been seeing it far too much this year.
Dirty water coho fishing is the best! I’m not sure if I agree with 1 fish in 50 statement since I have gotten quite a bit of coho with spoons and personal experience. I do agree that we all should promote fish handling skills for all species that has to be released. I have personally seen lot of bad handling this year as well. Unfortunate
I've watched them react to my spinners in clear water, maybe one in 10 follows for a bit, but only one in 50 actually makes a strike attempt. And once they've seen the lure a couple of times, they stop reacting completely. Maybe that ratio goes up in dirty water, but also people underestimate how many fish sit in a run in October, often it's a couple of hundred. @@Go2fishingbc
If you’re going to keep the fish then bank it. I don’t even net fish if I’m gonna keep them. But I agree. This year is bad and I’m on the Kitimat/skeena river. Everyone just dragging fish up on the bank and then releasing them by kicking them back in or chucking them back exhausted with out breathing them at all. If I’m catch and releasing a fish it doesn’t leave the water. That’s that. Everyone asks me if I need help or to drag it on the bank. I’m like no man, I’m releasing it. But yeah here we can keep wild and hatchery coho and 2 over 50cm and 2 under 50 cm
Spoon day! When the coho are fresh and just moved in (especially when the water levels rise) spoons can be insanely effective even over roe. Mike does make some amazing spoons and the quality is top notch from flat split rings, Mustad hooks, good barrel swivels and funky paint jobs (try shining a UV light on some and you will see why)
The white and red speckled dot one and another glow under the UV light, another favorite that friends like is the frog color (dark green with black) when coho get a bit tight lipped.@@Go2fishingbc
The fish are way more willing to bite after a decent rainfall. Coho are very spooky they will feel more comrortbale in a little murkier waters. Great job dude.
Keep up the videos man! I’ve been trying to catch my first coho or chinook for more than a few weeks now but nothing! I must be doing something wrong! Won’t give up though!
hi, great video. I recently started fishing and had a godd day last weekend with around 8 bites in a short time with spoons. But just after some fighting and getting the fish closer it would suddenly get off the hook under tension. What am I doing wrong? Would be happy if anyone has some tips as I am planning to go again this weekend

Great stuff, good quick coverage of the gear at the end of the video. While Prime lures are probably the "hot buy item" for the past 2-3 years, I feel like this is yet another advertisement for Prime Lure. Hope you got a deal or freebies out of this.
Thanks! Coming out with new content is hard so incorporating products makes it easier for me to produce content :)

@@Go2fishingbc yup I am sure Rod could tell you a thing or two about it after 20 years of blowing up spots 😅 just don't become too much of a UA-camr and remember to enjoy what you're doing rather than chasing the content creation rate race. Cheers!
Hey how’s it going guys. So I have a question to ask you. I haven’t been fishing in over 30 years and wanted to know what do u all use for hooks and bait. Also what part of the vedder do u recommend for fishing. I’ve been trying for the last few weeks to get at least one but not even a single thing. I’m currently running a braided line with a #2 hook and soft jar beads. Any suggestions or recommendations would be welcome. Thx again
The fish don't care about line type or color if you're using lures, they're striking out of aggression and don't care in the least. I use white braid the past few years, works great!
You got my heart in panic attack too, lost the first and bag the rest, awesome! How come you cut the head of the coho off, best part for fish head curry or soup, you not da troo Asian😂 great video, thank you from kangaroo land.
You kidding, that is the first time I have heard such thing, you the true Asian again😂 keep up the good work, cant wait to use spoon whenever I get to BC
@@Go2fishingbc I have had three good bites on them to where I feel enough and can see the fish them they always end up coming off. Have had zero luck on spinners and spoons.
Why do you take all that plastic bags with you on a fishing trip? I pack in tackle boxes. Then I don't leave small bags behind. It requires so little and means so much to the environment
On central Oregon coast I kill the fuck out of silvers & stealhead on lil Cleo blue & crome spoons & #4 only purple body crome blade blue fox spinners I don't fuck around with anything else
love hearing you give information to fellow anglers on the shore. Like "here's what I'm doing to catch fish!" So nice!
Hope it helps!

I've created a monster. 🤣
At least he isn't bragging about hooking more coho on spoons than you... "yet" 🤣
😂 Now I’m trying to become a Spoon master

You make it look so easy! Definitely fishing Vedder next year!
Great video dude, really enjoyed it.
Great video man... I'm missing the Jeff productions.
I like this guy, he's like a Canadian Napoleon dynamite. "I caught you a delicious bass". Keep making vids I love these small time UA-camrs.
Love this, your energy gets me hyped upppp 🤙
Thanks let’s gooo!
Man haven't even watched the episode yet and I'm stocked to sit and watch!
This one’s a exciting one!!
Coho love the basic kamlooper copper spoon, never fails for me
Nice!

You are totally right! Great qualities and catches fish. UV light?? I need to try it I wasn’t aware of that

Great video, l like how you show closeups of the tackle you use.
Glad you liked it!
I like your energy man! Keep up the good work! Subscribed!
Thank you!
That looks pretty addictive to me! I gotta get down there and try it out😊
So much fun!!
Was wondering what kind of camera you were using to talk into at the beginning of the video great quality awesome video. 💯💯
Just my iPhone 13! Thank you :)
As always great video!!
Thanks!!
Cool place man. I like that river, but not as much as the sol duc. King killers really work good too.
Nice fishing 🎣 👌
Thanks :)

I've lost a lot of hardware that's why I am scared to fish them. Any advice to avoid snagging ? Love you videos 😊 thank you!

Are these spoons effective on steelhead also?
Absolutely!
💯
good video. what is the weight of the spinners
2/5oz
100% agree
A pink rooster tail I’ve found works very well for coho in the rivers here on Vancouver Island
what reel are you using?
Great content sir. Thanks for sharing
Cleos ! The best.use them all the time.
What time of month did you go to the vedder for this spoon/spinner session?
October
The fish don't care about line type or color if you're using lures, they're striking out of aggression and don't care in the least. I use white braid the past few years, works great!
Yup pretty much reaction bite!
Hey man Nice watching you catch coho on spoons what is the fishing still good I'm coming down tomorrow November 6th can you let me know thanks man
It ll be less action but coho will be still around. It’s matter of if the river is going to be fishable or not…
@@Go2fishingbc awesome thanks man
Is this on the vetter ?
Yes vedder
What graph are you using if you don’t mind me asking?
Just the one that comes up on Google when I search “vedder river level”
Was this filmed this past weekend?
It sure as hell wasn't today, it was about 6" of visibility and quite high.
No, few weeks back
What length leader do you use? Or if any at all
I don’t use leaders because I’m lazy haha most people use flurocarbon leaders 6-10ft
dang that spot at 8 minutes looks good
The spot is horrible… ;)
You got my heart in panic attack too, lost the first and bag the rest, awesome! How come you cut the head of the coho off, best part for fish head curry or soup, you not da troo Asian😂 great video, thank you from kangaroo land.
I know it’s always a panic after losing one haha thanks! Haha the fishery officer took it for their jobs. No soup haha
You kidding, that is the first time I have heard such thing, you the true Asian again😂 keep up the good work, cant wait to use spoon whenever I get to BC
What a video👌
Respect for your quarry is far more important to learn than which spoon you use.
Depends on water conditions
You ever like using twitching jigs?
I rarely do. I stop if I snag the fish once. Haven’t got the technique down
@@Go2fishingbc I have had three good bites on them to where I feel enough and can see the fish them they always end up coming off. Have had zero luck on spinners and spoons.
@@BilboSandbaggins when it rains it will be awesome. Little tough rn with clear water and low
Where can I buy prime lures?
www.primelures.com or local tackle shop
Any fishing store in the lower mainland or Fraser valley pretty much or online
Where do you find the graph?
Just Google vedder river water level
That’s not weird I do the same straight to the spinner or spoons with my braid. Works for me
Awesome!
Could you show the way you get to your spot and where your spot is
No not really
Take a walk along the river away from people. You might find it
Nice angling sir .
when water is dirty use a smelly jelly and use a spinner that vibrates
You know the drill!
What scent do you think works best?
What River is
Vedder
why would you get pulled over ?
Just in case
Looks like the Satsop
wherw this spot
Vedder river
Might tell you that fluorocarbon is just an expensive line you don't need .
Yup expensive. I do like for my float leader setup tho
@Go2fishingbc doesn't make a difference maximuma is as good as it gets ,there not leader shuy. Otherwise, the commercial trolls would never catch them
Is this oregon or washington?
BC.
Why do you take all that plastic bags with you on a fishing trip?
I pack in tackle boxes.
Then I don't leave small bags behind.
It requires so little and means so much to the environment
I just received the packages so just brought it out with me to show it in a video. That’s all
Just so you know, it's illegal to remove salmon heads on the river.
Not when the fisheries people want the head. They give you a “receipt”
