How To Catch Lake Oroville King Salmon

[@jasongalbraith7218]

Great video! Excellent tips on fishing for landlocked king salmon at Lake Oroville! I always enjoy your videos! 😁😊

Thanks Jason!

I’ve caught two salmon at oroville this year. Both were on a megabass jerkbait. One 5-6 lb from the bank, and the other was just over 3 lb on the boat

[@catchamerica]

Yes....Bass guys catch a lot of big kings...Kings like structure and the bass and salmon feed on the same forage....

Hey Cal, where would you recommend launching for a kayak to get on the King action at Oroville?

[@catchamerica]

Launch at Bidwell to fish past the house boats and the Green Bridge area or at the Dam to fish the SW end of the lake. ~Wes

I may have to try that bio bait.

[@RB-pr4er]

What size bio bait?

[@garyhunter6118]

How do you tell the difference on the scope from trout and what are you doing different to catch the salmon vs the trout.

[@catchamerica]

There isn't really anyway to tell for sure...Oroville is primarily a king salmon and bass lake, however we do have an upcoming video dealing with how to work marks like the ones seen in the video....
Thx Cal

What date were these fish caught and what was the surface temp. Paul Belluomini

[@catchamerica]

I'm not sure about the surface temp Paul...We filmed this a week ago....We were marking fish as shallow as 25 feet early.....

Is 6” dodger good for Columbia River big fall chinook salmon? Or the 11” is better?

[@catchamerica]

I would think the bigger one would be better....

They were smashing my broken backs today

Hey Cal. Love this vid and info. Can I troll fro kings with a 4-6oz banana weight instead of a downrigger? (by the way, [e-mail] on your web article comes back as email fail.) Thanks

Minnow cooler while salmon fishing, time for a new cooler sponsor
