Pretty good fishing up until a couple days ago. Some very nice kings were being caught.  I heard of a couple pushing 30 pounds.  Closed for kings as of today until July 17-19 for three days, then opens again on August first.  At least that's the way I understand it currently.  Always subject to change!

Good to hear there is some size to them this year.  Definitely plan to hit the window later in the month

I didn't see any emergency rules change stating closed for kings at all at this point?

 Almost done getting my boat ready, can’t wait to rip some lips again.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Last year was epic for us in 11, never caught as many kings before.  My cousin who I consider one of the best fisherman on the water, especially in 11 has really spaced out this year, not one day on the water yet and he’s retired and single!!! I need my own damn boat!!

11 hasn't been all that this year so far.  Seeing how it is only open 4 more days in July 16-19th or something like that it aint looking good.  Hard to believe we now only get 4 days in July to fish for kings?  The best month in the year.  Wonder where those fish end up :bash:  Those 4 days were the best WDFW could give us little rec guys?  JUST LAME

I went to a Gig Harbor PSA meeting last August and asked the entire room who in there right mind would give up July for June.Almost all in attendance raised their hand.Blew my mind.The agenda of these groups is not always what it seems.

Pretty slow today, caught a few but too short. All kings, no silvers.  Cousin killed two silvers yesterday.

I hit the opener.  We caught 6 kings from 5am-noon one was 14ish native, 8lb hatch and lost another fish around 6-7lbs.  other fish were shakers.  my buddy went yesterday with his kids and they got two one 22lbs other was at least 17 not sure if they weighed that one but both hatchery fish.
