I've never seen so many big kings. Went to Barrier Dam and fished from 7am to 1:30pm. I didn't get any fish, but there are plenty of fish jumping. People around me had better luck. Saw five silver and 3 kings taken.. many more than that a little down stream. Lost a whole bunch of gear :(... time to restock.

They were near spawned out. Not black, but definitely not Chrome. Silvers were beautiful though.

Big smooth, were you fishing were all the drifters were towards to boatlaunch or were you fishing the spillway? Me, Kinghunter, Goin_postal, and D-wizzle were at the end of the drift down towards to boat lauch.. If you had to walk your fish downriver, you had to of passed us. We were into Kings all morning but no silvers...

I was up by the spillway all day...but I never got to do the walk :( Saw all the drifters down there though. What we need is boat to get out to that island. Those people were killin the fish.
Next time you guys head down, let me know, I'll try and make it down.

I have a boat, but it is fiberglass- 15ft tri hull with 70 hp motor..I am sure my boat can make it directly across the launch and we would just have to walk to that island...totally worth it, all the guides head that way...I hear there are a ton of silvers in the Toutle right now, so they gotta be making there way up to Barrier as we speak..I have a local that I befriended that is fishing this week, he's going to holler at me when he does. I'll keep you posted.
