Went to nooksack under the bridge at Lynden, didn't know the water was that high up, so I decided maybe it's ripe season for whatcom creek.

Arrived at around 1:30pm, surprised at the abnormal fishermen there are compared to the last two weeks. Water isn't clear, but the chums are there alright. However, it's a snag organization there; everyone trying to snag near the yellow line, and no fish was hooked in the mouth that I saw the whole 2 hours there. There was a guy offering to hook one for me and then I can reel it in; I refused because i was leaving soon, though (sorry mate).

On my way out, three guys who caught their limit also leave while carrying what seems to be 70+ lb of chums, so i asked them to take a picture because I thought that was cool (I never caught one single salmon in my life before..)

Wonder what happens to the crowd if there was a game warden at the scene.

Too bad to hear about the snaggers and nice job on refusing the offer to reel in snagged fish. Hope you catch your first salmon before season ends.

@KING KONG COHO: nothing better than a pair of New Balance over smoking chips!!
@hooksetjou: I hope so, too. I'll head to Nugent Corner this weekend to try out my luck yet another time. Hope the Nooksack's water has gone down a bit by then.
