Nice job man! Looks like a pretty small body of water.

Twin 6 lb Silver hens caught in the Puyallup this past Saturday. First one came in easy like a Pink...second one, I called it out from the second I set the hook "Get the net, this ain't no Pink!" LOL...I knew immediately it was something different.

Your not required to keep the first two fish you hook in the samish. It was like that last year but they changed it. Hope this helps.

Yea, I had assumed it was the same as last year, but on a quick re-read I realized I was wrong. That makes it way better, especially now that it is open for coho retention. That is going to be insane.

Here is a pic of my last catch on the Snohomish. A nice big ugly buck Pink Salmon... Ran short on time so took what I could that day for the meat. Love to smoke 'em up!

Little late, buts here's some coho from a few weeks ago. Haven't made it out much this season, so unfortunately those are the only salmon I've caught so far this year.

Yeah...I would've liked to have made it out more then I was able to, but even when I was out there a few weeks ago, it took forever to get those 4 fish. Seems things were pretty slow. Was out there on sunday, and there were no fish at all.

Well, another great day on the water! We caught fish until our arms were sore, and managed a few bright ones for the take home. Got Jon and his family on some of there first salmon, and then some. 85 degrees and fish on!

There are some achievements which are never done in the presence of those who hear of them. Catching salmon is one, and working all night is another.
