Alsea's dropping nice. I figure the Coho will have entered the river first as they are not so deep as Chinook, and make it further upriver before they get confined to certain pools. The Kings will need deeper water so they will be not as high up as the Coho. The big boys & girls fish will be a little further downstream from the Coho.
Anybody down Alsea-way think the Cohos will make it as far Five Rivers since the river came up?

 

[JeannaJigs]

Yes.

No doubt about that. Can't get there until tomorrow, so it will be packed. From Five Rivers boat ramp down to Tidewater is about 12 to 15 miles of river, right? Three campgrounds along the way. Wonder how many are still open.

I dont know about 3 camp grounds. I think there is just Blackberry. With 3 county launches. And yes, blackberry is still open.

 

[alseaalumaweld]

i know blackberry. and 6 launches

 

[RunWithSasquatch]

i know blackberry. and 6 launches

Launches:

5 Rivers, Ermie Walters, Blackberry, Mike Bauer, Crusher , Hootenanny, Barclays. 7 total for the 5 rivers down. Could call it 8, because a lot of people take out at KozeKove while drifting the lower river.

I was thinking the 3 county ones he thought were camp grounds.

 

[alseaalumaweld]

i see people camp at mike bauer. when theres hot plunking to be done

The host guy at blackberry is a piece of work. Last year He got all kinds of bent out of shape that we parked my friends car on the highway and then used the boat ramp to take out at dark. Five minutes of use? Max...and he took our net hostage until we came back with $6 to pay the day use fee because neither of us had cash. Think it's retarded to pay 6 bucks to take out in the camping off season!

That is all.

He's got a weird mental issue.

He did tell me the opposite before though. Said that as long as I parked on the highway I didn't have to pay.
