Tulalip Terminal Fishery

The Tulalip "Bubble" fishery put out some fish this past weekend. Though there were some fish caught I would not say that it was "Hot" by any means. Even when the fishery is "Hot", it is still averaging perhaps a fish every 10 boats or so. The folks that I spoke with that did have fish over the weekend mentioned that the tribes had lots of commercial crab gear plastered all over the area and made trolling next to impossible. Many guys were in this week replacing downrigger leads after getting them hung up in the crab gear. Some of the more successful anglers were those that were jigging utilizing 2 1/4 ounce Point Wilson Darts in Pearl White or Green Pearl finishes. Give the area just off the entrance of the bay off of the buoy in 40 - 60 feet of water first thing in the morning.
