PINK SALMON RUN INFO
« on: July 24, 2013, 02:40:55 PM »
Is anyone catching the pinks yet in the Puget Sound?  If so I would love to know where they are in their run, and plan my trips. If anyone knows anything about the pink run in the sound please use this post to bounce around info!!  :tup:

They're also making appearances in the Nisqually, Skokomish, and Green rivers right now. Also some out at Dash Point. Still early but they're out there.

Peak in the sound is in August.  It will build from now to mid-August.  Right now there are some around.  In 2 weeks you won't be able to not catch them.

As much as I don't care to go pink fishing for more than a few hours each year they are around, I am looking forward to the next pink run.  My twin boys will be almost 3 and just might be into it.  If not, the next run will be a blast.

I'm looking forward to getting them in the river out here. My 5 year old is going to hammer them. I could care less about eating them. Just interested in getting her into a bunch of them. Should be a blast.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

The run that's in the river now is the early batch, the real run is coming mid August (or the first good rain). I was fishing area 6 over July 4th and they were hitting pretty hard, last weekend was dead because the majority are still in Neah Bay.
