Reiter Ponds - Skykomish River - Snohomish River

Though the Reiter Ponds section of the river has slowed considerably since last Saturday's opener there are still fish being caught. We have been hearing of perhaps 6 to 10 a day being landed in the hatchery section of the river on a daily basis the past few days. Not a ball of fire but at least good enough fishing to make it worthwhile spending a few hours pitching your favorite offering.

We have also been getting good reports out of the middle and lower sections of the river with a good mix of steelhead and Chinook. Most of the guys fishing this section of the river have been boaters.

In the Snohomish we have also been hearing of some good summer run catches from the plunkers fishing the bar areas, such as Crab or Douglas Bars.
