I really went for crab but was hoping for a salmon as a bonus. I got there just pass 6am and there were a few parking spaces left. I stayed until close to 1:30pm. I came home with 2 keeper Red Rock and 0 salmon. I did come away with seeing my first school of Pinks. At least 30-50 were caught between the shore and dock while I was there. I heard it got really hot for salmon after I left. I could see 5 salmon being lifted up to the dock as I was leaving. At one point there was a cool picture... 2 seals facing shore with 5 fishermen in the water fishing toward the seals.
I would say that 90% of those fishing for salmon were using pink buzz bombs. I fished with my friend Kim and she got her first salmon after I left. FISHINROB stopped by and introduced us to Jeff and Ryan. They also all caught salmon.
Remember to pack patience with you if you go and leave the anger behind.

That was the most fishermen ive ever seen there.There was alot of fish caught to say the least but remember to bring the ice chest to put the pinks right in after bleedind.There were alot of pinks just laying on the ground in the chase for the next fish so dont waste them take care of them then get back out .incoming tide was the best.IT was nice meeting Kim and and seeing Toni again and seeing Kim catch here first pink nice job!!

Jens, I was on the pier. Both high and low. About an hour or so after the change seemed to be the hottest. But fish were caught at the deeper end on the low.
Get out in your boat. Today (7th)there were 8 boats just off shore.
