I have been able to hit the rivers almost everyday the last few weeks, and the fish are here and they just keep on coming into the Snohomish system with every high tide. Limits are the drill and happy faces are the norm. Give me a call to get in on the HOT bright pink salmon action before the fish turn into their imfamous calling — “Humpzillas” — and go into spawn mode.
We just took a signficant river rise, but the rivers are already fishable. Lake Sammamish finally has kicked into gear and Todd Daniels is “The Man” for those king salmon. Call him A.S.A.P. before these fish are up the creek and into the hatchery for everyone to see during the Salmon Days festivities. Also, I personally saw a silver salmon get caught today on the lower Snohomish.
A little FYI: the Everett Coho Derby is Sept. 19-20 and there should be more silvers in the rivers by then… I hope! If you catch any silver salmon, make sure and weigh it. I had buddies get some pretty sweet prizes last year for their “little” 5-8 lb. chromers.
Sincerely,
Bonner Daniels
P.S. Save the Tokul Creek Fish Hatchery summer run steelhead, they are being phased out!
