No springs for me yesterday and didn't see any rolling anywhere. Did see a lot of people filling up white plastic Safeway  bags with 8 and 10 inchers though couldn't keep roe on my hook for more than two or three casts as the little guys would strip it clean . A couple more weeks should do it.

By the time august comes around, the springs are pretty much boots and should be left alone.  I have caught coho though at the end of august. ;)

LoL. I have caught springs in August, and quite a lot of them. My nicest spring was in August.. Chrome. ;D.......Man. It is crazy fun to catch coho at tamahi rapids in August.  ;D I caught 5 in one day, and my dad caught 3!

Springkiller,  methinks that the coho that you were hooking at tamihi in august were probably sockeye!   hope you didn't bonk any!

 I the month of August, you can't catch coho in the vedder, maybe if you are really lucky but the chances of getting a coho in August at the vedder are very, very slim. Coho start showing up in good numbers in the fall not in August.

You can catch coho in August, there are very few, but the earliest I have gotten one is last week of august.  Sight fish with roe.  Oh and these  fish are generally very small, maybe a dozen will pass you buy in a day...until sept. rolls around...they come by in the hundreds.   Some of my best coho fishing is withing the first 2 weeks of sept, there isn't as many people on the river, that is until word gets around.
