A friend got four yesterday off of San Juan.  It does seem pretty early for Hood Canal, but I don't have any history fishing there.

That's about all we where catching at Seiku last weekend, probably another month before it gets real thick in the straight.

We caught 14 and lost 3 times that many near San Juan Island over the weekend. They are way early. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a few in the Canal.

Someone post on a fishing site I go to post a report that they got one on July 5th off the beach in Area 9.  Not sure what beach.

We caught multiple pinks on the king opener by San Juan Island.  We kept tossing them back as were we trying to catch kings.  If I would have thrown out some pink gear and come up to 60ft we might have really been into them.
Cut em!

I was fishing for Kings.  I caught them all on Red Racer flashers, 42" Leaders, green glow hootchies and a herring strip. We were fishing 65' to 100'.  I only hooked 1 King that came umnhooked after a big run.

My brother and 4 year old nephew are coming out for a visit next month. Hoping to get the boy into some pinks. We've got a trip planned August 10 in the sound somewhere.

" 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

Should be plenty of pinks around by Aug 10.

August 10 is historically when pink fishing goes nuts in the Everett area.

I need to have someone teach me the setups needed for pinks.  Got an 18' Lund with a 70hp Yamaha.  Pull crab pots in Everett to Camano regularly but can't catch a cold when it comes to fish.

On second thought, just check out salmon university. It has most of the info I was going to tell you.
