what I've heard is to use blue fox spinners or you can use salmons eggs off of the bottom

well good luck, listen to all the tips everybody has and dont get discouraged if you dont get anything your first day. It takes a while to figure out but once you do it gets easier, for the most part that is.

We drove past the Puyallup and the water was very muddy, so we pass on it. Went to the Green. 3 hrs later, not a single bite. Saw lots of fish jumping and swimming. Actually had 1 follow my lure when we first got there, but that was as close as it got.

Threw roosters, blue fox spinners, kastmasters, and little cleos. The GF got tired after and put on a bottom rigged powereggs.

Saw a couple of other guys there. Didnt see anything being pulled. I dont know what kind of fish they were, but a few of them had redish sides.

Was there for about four hours, lost one pretty nice silver and caught three trout. The fish were EVERYWHERE, just need to figure out how to get them.

where did you go? We were just slightly north of the 277th bridge. As stated, we saw plenty of fish. They just wouldnt bite what we were using. Maybe it was because of the time. We were there from 2-5PM.

What did you use?

The Puyallup River is always muddy this time of year. It is fishable.


Those fish with the reddish sides are coho.
