Re: Snohomish river

We need a little rain, just a little, so the fish move into the system but not all the way up. Looks like September will be a great month!

Re: Kayak point

I was there on the 7th. There is a sign on the pier that says you cannot overhead cast, so fishing from the pier is useless. We did not see any fish, just a bunch of crab.

Spring break fishing trip!!! Where do I go?

I live in Monroe. My son and I are planning to do some fishing next week, I am debating a day on the Sol Duc trying to catch a few springers, but that is not a sure fire way to catch fish. If you just wanted to go catch a CRAP LOAD of fish in April within reasonable distance from me - where would yo...

How do I fish for Silvers with all these Pinks in the River?

Hey Y'all,

If I want to target silvers to I throw a bait that the pinks would never take? I have heard that is doesn't matter, but I wanted to get the expert opinion. How do I target silvers in the midst of a ton of pinks?

Where are all the Pinks that are supposed to be in the Snoho

Guys - Anybody have any thoughts on the quality of the August 1st opener? It seems like there are no pinks in the Edmonds/Mukilteo/Everett Area (Area 9) that is open for fishing. If they aren't in the salt yet, how are they going to be in the river in 5 days?

Where to fish tomorrow in North Sound

I have 4 hours free tomorrow the 5th to try and get some fishing in. I am debating between the Skykomish in Monroe, the Skykomish in Sultan and the Edmonds Pier. Where do you think I will be more likely to get into some fish? I am shore bound. Thanks for the help?

Re: Snohomish River Lowell Coho

I have seen them jumping. I was out yesterday afternoon. I actually had one on the line for about 10 seconds before it spit the hook. The river is muddy and high, but the fish are still there.

These fish are driving me CRAZY!!!

BACK STORY: I grew up fishing bass and trout in Southern Calif and Ellensburg. Once in a while I was fortunate enough to go deep sea in So Cal. As you can see, I don't have a lot of salmon experience. I have an 8 year old that LOVES to fish. We were introduced to salmon last year and had a blast cat...

I've seen plenty of folks fishing the pier that's just down stream from boat ramp in Langus Park. It's on Smith Isl if you didn't know. That isn't open till Saturday, the river, per the regs, starts at the Burlington Northern RR bridge. I am looking for the best place to fish that is in the saltwat...

:-s outside of Pink runs and U-fish trout ponds an exercise in patience IS the fishing experience..

You are correct! I guess that is why I enjoy teaching my kids to fish, maybe they will learn a little patience.

How do the fish get in the Snohomish?

Just a quick question from someone trying to find a place to catch a coho this week in the Everett Area. Do the salmon come from the south and enter the river from the east side of jetty island or do they come from the north and enter from the west side of Jetty Island? If they enter from the east s...
