Skagit River - Out of Shape

The Skagit River king salmon fishery will be out of the question for this weeks opener, as the extremely "HOT" weather has blown the river out of shape. We will be lucky if the river comes back into shape for the following weekend. Though this fishery has been less than fantastic it has produced a handful of very nice fish for persistent anglers.

If the river does come back into shape for this following weekend we should see the best opportunity for good fishing as the kings entering into the Skagit should be at their peak.

The tribal netters saw good numbers of fish in the web during there past opener, earlier this week.
