Northwest Fishing Reports

I was having a conversation with my local WDFW guy about a different topic, and just happened to ask what he's heard about the incoming salmon hoard.

As of this morning, he said there are reports from the west coast of Vancouver (BC obviously) Island there are "more pinks than ever documented and most are Puget Sound fish based on DNA".

So the main hoard is still in transit. Not sure how long it will take them to get down here, but they are coming. That would explain why it's been slow. But there are fish in the river, I've seen them and have caught some (Puyallup).

Just thought I would share with the class.

One week, on fire!

The little bit of rain has helped. My husband just texted me saying there are people at browns point with multiple fish on stringers. And anyone whos been fishing browns knows its been dead.

i have gotten my limit every day i have on the puke. the fish are here, its only going to get better. catch and released over 30 a week ago.

Yup puke is doing good but not super hot. Saw a big ho caught today.

Sunset falls hatchery had 7 pinks back august 18 2011 and we are at 245 by august 15 this year. Everything is on track.
