Cudz Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) there are many species of fish in and around the mouth of the river. I have caught the usual salmon and trout but also walleye, pike and huge catfish. There are also sturgeon around but they are never in season. All these fish were caught the same day within a couple of hundred of meters from each other. Edited June 10, 2013 by Cudz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 First off... Welcome to OFC! I live in the area, and have always wanted to try for Pike there. Some friends of mine have done well there in the past. But like Cudz said, you really never know what you might pull our the Notti.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillM Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 You won't find any salmon/trout at the mouth now... They'll be out in the deep water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sofabed Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Is there good fishing in this area for bass, walleye and pike. I looked at a couple of places to purchase in the area but didn't because I could not find much info on the fishing in the area. I am not looking for spots but just some general information on the area. Is the river good during the summer or do you have to go out a few miles in the bay to have any success?

Freshtrax Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Lots of bass everywhere in the river, and the odd pike...but it really shines in the fall , winter and spring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marko Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 TIps for fishing new bodies of water....its what usually works for me. Double blade baits, for some reason bass really like white ones. Spinners sizes 1-5 (mepps -Panther Martin - Blue fox) Again white, gold, silver, silver-pink, silver-blue. I`ve caught bass and pike on almost all of them. If you are fishing early morning you can try top water baits. Poppers work really well on some mornings for small and large mouths. Move around and change it up until you start getting hits. Try to find weed edges if you can. Jig heads with gulp minnows (3-4) inches are a deadly bait for walley. You can always "cheat" and tip it with a live minnow or a piece of a worm Good luck!
