Pinks - Pinks - Pinks & More Pinks

The Edmonds area was "Full" of pinks this morning. Almost everyone that we talked with caught numerous pinks no matter what they were fishing. The king anglers trying to scratch out some of the declining numbers all mentioned that they had trouble getting through the pinks. We had one fishermen saying that the pinks took quite a toll on his coho killers and did quite a job in twisting them up.

If you are really looking for pinks the Edmonds ferry area south would be a much better bet than fishing the usual "Humpy Hollow" area south of Mukilteo. Though we did hear of pinks being caught in this area it was not even close to the numbers that were caught in the Edmonds area.

The other area that we heard of good pink catches was the area from Point No Point all the way past Jefferson Head. Lots of pink limits were boated there.

By the way, there were a few kings still landed in the Edmonds area today. Not "Hot" by any measure it still seemed to be more productive than many other areas.
