Lower Umqua river small mouth bass.

[Chinook]

How low in the river do people fish for smallmouth bass. I stay the summer at Winchester bay and fish for salmon. I would like to try some bass fishing on days I can't go in ocean because of bad conditions. Only 18' prop/tiller boat.

they are at least down tp scottsburg. I haven't fished farther downriver for them so don't know more than that

I've caught them at least a mile below tidewater while targeting coho.
