Fish tale

The Chinook is the king of the Pacific salmon: the biggest of them all, strong enough to swim far up rivers. It is the state fish of Oregon, where the Portland Timbers won the MLS Cup in 2015.

Island story

On Futbol Island the chinook salmon can be caught at:

  • Stadium Rocks: Rocks on the north shore, straight out from the DRIP FC Stadium, where a kelp forest sways at the edge of deeper water. Kelp bass and sheephead patrol the fronds, and a king salmon sometimes cruises past.

Size on the island: 70–150 cm.
