Coho Fishing - Area 9 & 8-2

Still getting some fair reports coming in from these two areas, though the fishing has definitely slowed up there are still good numbers of coho migrating through on their way to home waters. It is a matter of you picking the correct spot and hopefully being at the right spot at the right time and having an offering that they are interested in. It's simply a matter of luck! Even some of the better fishermen have been "Skunked" this week. However, on the other hand we have seen some good catches and heard of many more. We will be seeing coho sneaking through in good numbers into the end of the month and even into November, December and even into January - but not really in fishable numbers - just a matter of luck.

Many of our regulars have been reporting incidentaly catching some really nice blackmouth that they have released this week, many of them in the mid teens. Things are looking really good for the upcoming blackmouth season opening November 1 st.

There have been a few more chum salmon hooked this week, there numbers should do nothing but increase toward the end of the month and into November.

Though the pinks should be through, there has still been an odd one caught this week in our areas. I suppose it just has to do with the shear numbers that we have had returning to Puget sound streams.
