Anyone fish it today?

I fished a couple hours off the West side of P bar before work this morning. Nothing caught. 50 or so boats over there and I didn’t see anything caught.

Landed 2 keepers and lost one that nearly spooled me.

Had one take down at PNP but never felt it.

Fish checker said about 1 per boat average. Mostly kings but a few pinks and silvers were in the mix.

Fished it, crowded at PNP and skunk bay
saw zero fish netted
I talked to one guy at the ramp that had a nice fish around 12bs
said first light bite
I was late at 5am and was surprised by the number of boat trailers at the ramp
will try again tomorrow probably

Both kings ran like freight trains.Sad thing is that wild nook I let go might end up in a Indians net

I think its the North wind.
I'm going to wait until the wind direction changes
North wind has never been good for fishing IMO.

Got one today, better bite this morning with the south wind
talked to a guy that got one about 23lbs and saw another taken about same size as this one

Isn't the quota around 70% met already? You think it will last the week?

Chinook salmon fishing in Marine Area 9 will close at the end of the day Sunday

OLYMPIA – The recreational chinook salmon fishery in Marine Area 9 (Admiralty Inlet) will close at the end of the day, Sunday, July 26, when state fishery managers expect the catch quota to be met.
Fishing for coho and pink salmon in Marine Area 9 will remain open but all chinook must be released. The daily limit for the area will be two salmon plus two additional pink salmon. Anglers fishing from the Edmonds Fishing Pier can still retain chinook.
“Anglers have been doing well since the fishery opened last week,” said Ryan Lothrop, Puget Sound recreational salmon fishery manager. “The fishery was scheduled to be open through Aug. 15, but anglers have already caught 80 percent of the chinook catch quota for the area.”
As of July 23, anglers had harvested an estimated 1,953 chinook in Marine Area 9. The catch quota for the area is 2,483 fish.
Beginning Monday, anglers will be able to fish for salmon in the area south from the line between Foulweather Bluff and Olele Point, Lothrop said. This section of Marine Area 9 was closed during the chinook fishery. Anglers fishing in this section have the same daily limit for salmon as the rest of Marine Area 9.
