Went out salmon fishing for the first time by 107.
Really didn't know what the hell I was doing but had fun.
Had 5 fish on in 4 hours. Only landed one.
Questions:
The nets are in. Does that mean the season is effectively over in the west Seattle region?
When will they take the nets out?
When fishing a jig should I use a swivel to give it more action?
Thanks,

MT SAM

Nets come out on Friday. It probably would be best to head up river during the week. Then come back down river on Sat/Sun when the nets aren't in.

Is the fishing as good when the nets get removed?

Well it's not going to be as good as it's been since there wasn't any nets except for a 18 period in the last week of August. I was there on saturday and three of us caught our 18 fish in about 4 hours. With the nets in it would probably take a lot longer to limit out.

I've been using pink jigs. Filled up a punch card and a half using only pink jigs.
