“The Chetco had a surprising number of bright kings on Thanksgiving weekend, with several fish over 40 pounds caught, along with a 52-pounder,” said Andy Martin of Wild Rivers Fishing. “Plug fishing has been good on the lower river. A handful of steelhead also have been caught, both by plunkers and boaters side-drifting. While rivers to the north are low and clear, the Chetco still had plenty of flow and color on Tuesday.”
