Those are some really nice Slivers.....what was the lure of choice and depth on those babies? Great job and even better eating........Les

Congrats - those are beautiful.  Fish, fowl or red meat, nothing better than self-harvested protein.

Does anyone mooch for silvers using a herring or just mostly trolling in area 8-2?  I am not set up for downriggers but would like to mooch if I stand a reasonable chance.  Thoughts?

[MooseStock]

Mooching is an awesome way to fish Silvers or Kings but the sad fact is there have been so many dogfish anymore its almost become to tough to waste your time tying up gear. I was up in that area a couple of weeks ago and there was a ton of bait and a ton of dogs....they would follow up the salmon we brought in and a couple of times just saw them swimming by the boat. You might get away with fishing a cutplug or whole herring at a fast/Silver clip but you better be cooking.....Les

Try using Deep Six divers until you can get downriggers, I've used them a lot and they work well.

Nice looking pile you got there!  Gotta love fresh coho!

Yes a deep six is the way to go. I have electric DR's and I run a deep six when fishing 3 or more. This year the deep six has produced as many silvers as the riggers. Use a flasher, 36" of leader and a pink UV coho killer spoon. It has been deadly out around posession bar. Good luck.

Nice fish there! So obviously you can keep nate silvers in those areas and looking at the regs for the Snohomish River (mouth to confulence) it looks like you can keep native silvers in there too?? Am I reading that right? (I hate the new format of the regs this year the way they broke up the rivers by area, kinda of hard for me to find some of them....)

How about jigging a big jig like the Pt Wilson Dart style? I've heard that works really well, especially for kings, so you'd think it would work on the silvers too?

those are some turbo silvers, NICE AND FAT...
