I grew up on steamboat island, and I've never caught a pink there. I'm sure some do, but I've not been out there when they're there. Kings, coho and lots and lots of chum though. The Nisqually gets humpies though, so that's where I'd head. Really the only super good run is the chum, otherwise you're better off on the Chehalis tribs down the road a bit.
