Title: Silvers coming in anywhere?
Post by: DoubleJ on August 18, 2014, 11:43:43 AM: I really dropped the ball on kings due to other commitments. Are the silvers showing up anywhere yet, specifically south sound? I think it's a bit early yet.

Mooching or trolling? I lost my downrigger capability for awhile. Stupid sea floor :bash:

Post by: hunt_fish on August 18, 2014, 06:45:41 PM: Another week and they should start trickling in well in the north sound. Sekiu had a bunch of coho there this past weekend. End of August should be decent for the south sound.

Post by: sirmissalot on August 25, 2014, 01:30:37 PM: The kings have been biting pretty decent lately in the south end of the canal. FYI.

Are you fishing Port Angeles? I'm thinking we might try up there Saturday morning if I don't hear of good reports from Area 9/10. Is the fishing better outside of Ediz Hook or Freshwater Bay, or does it not really matter as long as you're fishing in deeper water like at Sekiu?

Good to see the coho showing up. Be fun to splash the drift boat in October a bit.

Post by: PolarBear on August 29, 2014, 09:59:12 PM: DoubleJ, the coho should be at my hot spot close to you in about 2 1/2 - 3 weeks. I will let you know when they are is and get you into some! There are still kings running up Minter Creek. I'm headed either to Totten for cutthroat or Buoy 10 on Sunday and or Monday.
