About Carbon River
Carbon River cuts through Washington, United States and offers classic stream fishing. The local patterns are the universal river patterns: fish the heads of pools at first light, the deep slow water in the middle of the day, and the tail-outs as light fades. Light tackle and a careful drift go a long way at Carbon River — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

Fishing Techniques
- For Chinook salmon
Vary your retrieve speed and depth until you find what the fish are responding to, as their preferences can change daily.
- For Pink salmon
Pink salmon often school tightly; if you catch one, keep fishing the same area as more are likely present. Use a twitching retrieve with spoons or spinners.
- For Coho salmon
When fishing for Coho in rivers, focus on areas with current breaks, such as behind rocks or logs, as they often hold in these spots. Vary your retrieve speed to find what the fish are responding to.
