Reiter Ponds - Skykomish

We had good reports from the Reiter Ponds section of the Skykomish today. We spoke to a number of folks that had caught limits of nice bright hatchery fish. Though the river was still on the rise and beginning to take on a little color it did nothing to deter the fishing. There was no really hot item and fish were landed by those fishing floats and jigs as well as conventional drift fishing techniques. The next couple of days should see some really good fishing. If you can get out tomorrow or Saturday I would do such - this just might be a couple of the better days this winter season. Most of the fish landed were the typical 2 salt fish in the 5 -8 pound range, though there were a couple 3 salt fish in the mid teens landed.
