Fishing in Nehalem Bay

Nehalem Bay presents an unparalleled estuary fishing experience along Oregon's northern coastline, renowned for its thriving populations of Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, and Steelhead. This biodiverse bay merges river freshwater with Pacific Ocean tides, creating rich habitats where anglers consistently land trophy-sized fish. The towering jetties framing the bay entrance serve as prime fishing platforms, while deeper channels harbor migrating salmon schools.

Fall Chinook Salmon bursts into peak season from late August through November, with 20–50 pound specimens surging into the bay and Nehalem River. Aggressive Coho Salmon runs ignite equally dynamic battles from August to December, often coinciding with Chinook activity for multi-species opportunities. Beyond salmon, the rocky structures and tidewaters yield Steelhead year-round and support abundant Dungeness crab harvests.

Versatile fishing methods thrive here: trolling herring or anchovies near Wheeler Marina attracts salmon, while bobber-and-egg rigs excel in river channels during tidal movements. Jetty anglers frequently lure Lingcod and rockfish beside crab pot deployments. The bay's interconnected waterways—including the Nehalem River and tributaries—enable diverse expeditions across calm estuaries, ocean-adjacent zones, and forest-lined riverbanks.

Nehalem Bay’s wild scenery enhances every outing, with coastal rainforests, elk herds along shorelines, and seabird colonies contributing to Oregon’s iconic coastal allure. This destination delivers consistent action whether targeting seasonal salmon migrations, battling powerful Steelhead, or harvesting crab between casts—all within one of the Pacific Northwest’s most ecologically abundant fisheries.
