The Coho Salmon is one of the most popular gamefish in the Pacific Northwest. They can be found throughout the Northern Pacific Ocean as well as in the Great Lakes and other landlocked lakes within the United States.

Salmon are typically born in freshwater. They then migrate to the ocean, only to return to freshwater, where they reproduce. The female Salmon will then die within days of reproducing.

Coho Salmon when, living in fresh water, typically feed on plankton and insects. When the salmon move to the ocean their diet becomes mostly small fish. How to catch salmon is by using a variety of tackle and techniques. Some of these are trolling, casting, jigging and fly fishing.
