Humpy-mania has hit the Skagit River! I weighed in a lot of Humpies today for the Humpy-mania Derby that Morgan Creek Outfitters in downtown Sedro-Woolley is putting on. (I work there on the weekends.) I also saw 4 small Silvers that were caught. The humpies are on the smallish side right now. The biggest fish I weighed in was 5 lbs. 11 oz. The Silvers looked to weigh in at about 3 lbs.

The Samish River is putting out some nice Kings and a lot of Humpies. A 44 lb. King was reported to me today and I got to see the cell phone photos of it.

Now might be a good time to fish it. Before them sewer tasting things get to dark. I might stop in on my way home from work and see if I can get my hands on one for the fresh eggs. The meat will be given away at the river or whoever I can get to take it.

Remember the nets are in Sunday noon - Wednesday noon.
