8/31/2011 6:39:00 PMFished the Skagit today as well in Mt Vernon between 1pm and 5pm.. River was FULL of fish, rolling and jumping consistently.
Best lure used was a silver and pink striped full size STEELIE type lure. It was catching one every third cast and about 100 feet off shore. I was fishing from the bank.
A pink squid jig was pretty close with a fish on every 6 casts, and the jig was picking up fish about 5-10 feet from the bank.
