Post by: MooseStock on September 07, 2011, 09:59:00 PM: 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.

Post by: Ripper on September 08, 2011, 06:53:54 PM: 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.

Post by: trippledigitss on September 09, 2011, 09:40:39 AM: 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? :dunno:
