I've crossed that bridge 3 times in the last 2 weeks and every time I stop and ask if anyone's catching. The answer so far has been no.

Fished Renfrew Friday. Launched in the river at 9:00 am. Started fishing around the can bouy then headed out to deeper water looking for some coho. Trolled out to 650' then into camper where there were probably 15-20 boats. Saw 1 boat net a fish and we hooked one at 65 ft , on a spoon, that we lost. Pulled gear and headed back at 2:00pm. No fish but a nice day on the water

I fished Thursday with my folks and managed Two 10lbs Coho. Pretty slow and spotty from what I saw. Great weather and flat water. Fished Camper area Friday morning and saw a few fish caught but not many. Managed a 24lbs Spring around 9:30 just before we packed up. Nice way to finish my year.....

dont no about kicker,it just looked like it ran out of gas,then started it again and rev up and died over and over would not stay running,so i gave up and trolled with the clunker,switch is ****** up on it so will have to investigate if its a fuel problem or ignition problem,just need a bit of time should be able to figure it out,maybe just bad gas.just a ***** to work on standing on the swim grid,just dont want to pull it out the water this late in the season

Spent 5 hours fishing from the shore today by the bridge next to the campground with 0 success. Was casting spinners and hoochies. Anyone have any recommendations on what I should be using? I saw plenty of salmon jumping between 5-10 lbs but only saw 1 person catch a coho roughly 6lbs out of a dozen people fishing there.

Its called lock jaw. I have fished there many times and get few bites.. People that get them use buzz bombs and snag them. I have had better success up river in the estuary.

What fins said. It's always tough to get them to bite there. So frustrating seeing all these fish jumping.

Thanks, I think the guy who I did see catch the 6lb used a buzz bomb but i didn't get to ask him as he left so quick. I think fishing past the bridge is still off limits as it freshwater no? The salmon doesn't taste as good when its not in its saltwater body to?
