Where is this information comming from?
Right now we are targeting feeders which are local salmon not spawning salmon or salmon stacking up in front of rivers.
I would personally wait till June to fish them river mouths. They are normally fished untill Nov./Dec. in some areas. But I would love to hear more about these January Salmon that are stacking up.

Sorry to say this is over my head. I am lost, and read this over and over.
Sorry If I misunderstood the joke, I am still lost.
Sorry, Just thought I could help JayDee.
quote:Start fishing off the piers around the rivers where they will be coming. Right now they are staging and waiting for the fall rains to raise the water levels. They come very close to shore between about 1am and 2 hours after sunrise (extended on cloudy days). As the season moves on, they will spend more time close to shore, and eventually move up the rivers. Now is the best time to catch them for food because they haven't gone into spawning mode yet, so most of them are still silver in colour "Chromers". Once they turn black brown and green, they taste nasty, but good to give to your trapper friend if you have one.Also try big suspending crakbaits like Rapala X-Raps. They like a slow wobble. They seem to be very attracted to spinners but in my experience they seem tro hesitate and not bite at the last minute. I have caught a couple on #4 Blue Fox vibrax, with pink body and silver blade. You can try roe sacs (salmon eggs) with some floatation in there, and let them sit a 2 or 3 feet off the bottom, but that bait will work better as the season progresses.
