check with the hatchery because when they start dumping salmon smolts into the creek is the key to nailing the big cutts. Troll any lure that is the color of Coho smolt and you will do well. I have done well with everything from flatfish to spoons. All small sizes. I troll them off a rigger and match the depth to the fish showing. All within 1/2 mile of the mouth of the creek.
