Nick, the question is a bit broad so hard to answer. Most of the rivers in October and November will have coho salmon. One should not place so much emphasis on "prime spots", since a location can be productive on one day, but fishes poorly on the next day. Coho salmon are constantly on the move when the river level is high enough. My suggestion would be to give the Chilliwack River a try in the next couple of weeks, or the Fraser River by either roe fishing or spincasting. Stave River, Chehalis River will also produce coho salmon until the end of November. Try getting out there and fish a few spots several times so you get to know it intimately. So far this season we have been fishing two locations on the Chilliwack River repeatedly. On some days, fishing has been poor while other days fishing has been excellent. The objective is to fish it well when the fish are in by learning the spot thoroughly. Good luck.

This is like asking a bear where he gets his honey.
Try and steal honey from a bear.  ;D ;D

Just go to the Chilliwack river and fish any water that's slower and deeper, or any pools or breaks in the current
chances are they will hold coho.
That way you will find your sweet spot pretty quickly.

Yes the last few trips there has been plenty of good float fishing water available and as adriaticum says just go out and do some walking. After this highwater and it starts to drop there will be some sweet spots. ;D ;D

I get this question directed at me a few times each year and I sure like to help the great members of this forum but many others, lurkers, read it too so as one can appreciate your run will soon be overrun. As I did with a recent PM I gave them a general area to try. I like to do this for young and keen anglers within reason.

I spent time searching out runs to fish as it is part of angling but of course easy for me to say and do as I have in most cases plenty of time to do so.
