Winter Steelhead and Blackmouth (king)

  With all the wild weather lately, it has been hard to get out on the Sound or the Olympic Peninsula rivers.  Between wind storms, fishing for Blackmouth in Puget Sound has been very good.  The last few trips out we have had very consistent action on some good sized Blackmouth up to 10lbs.  This last rain storm and the one impending, has put the finishing touch on the Fall Salmon run on the OP.  Their will be a few Salmon around when the rivers recede, this is time to look for Winter Steelhead.  As the water drops into shape.  I would expect a decent shot of Steelhead in the Bogachiel, Calawah, and Hoh.  

This past system squeezed out more than 10" of rain in 24hrs.

 

 

 

Fall fishing in the great North West.

 Salmon fishing has been great out on the Olympic Peninsula.  The Quileute river and Sol Duc rivers have been stuffed with Coho salmon.  Best lures have been spinners and spoons.  Some good action for winter blackmouth (kings) out in MA 10.  Jeff head had been a productive area prior to the wind.  I just got back from a 10 day trip in BC.  This has been an annual trip that never fails to impress.

Great Coho fishing

A nice Humboldt

  Pink Salmon and Coho fishing in the Sound continues to be great.  We have had some good action on Coho and Pinks in the central part of Puget Sound.  Ace High flys and Coho Killers fished 40-60′ deep have been producing well.  I fished for a few days with some friends out at Neah Bay.  The fishing was great.  We had a good swarm of Humboldt Squid around, so we decided to keep one and see how they ate.

 

 

Seattle Coho fishing

Coho fishing has been very good over the last couple days in the central part of Puget Sound.  I have not left the Meadow pt / Westpoint areas for over a month.  Today we had great action with Coho Killers and Ace high flies fished at 40′-60′.  Big Bob from Wisconsin caught this 19lb coho this morning along with a few other 8-12lb coho.

Puget Sound Coho and Pinks

Fishing has been great for Coho and Pink Salmon.  Most trips have had limits of Salmon, with many Coho working into the mix.  Shilshole Bay has been a top producer for me and others.  Fishing has been best at 40-80′ with flashers and Spoons, or Hootchies.  King salmon fishing is now closed in MA 9 and 10.

Seattle Fishing

Salmon fishing continues to be great in the central part of area 10.  Pinks, Kings and Coho have been in the mix.  Friday we had great action for King Salmon, and Pinks.  Saturday was Ocean Coho and Pinks.  A great time to fish as you dont know what is going to climb on.  A few late pics from a summer trip out on the Pacific Ocean with a few good friends.

Your Captain can catch them as well

Great Seattle fishing Pinks, Coho, and Kings.

  Fishing has been great over the past few weeks.  Pink salmon have been hitting the lures with reckless abandon.  A few good ocean Coho have been in the mix as well.  We have had some success with King salmon as well the past few mornings.  The best fishing has been in the West point area, and Shilshole Bay.  Pink Buzz Bombs, Pink Hootchies and White dodgers have been very productive.  The King action has been a early bite for me.  Limits of salmon have been the norm for the past week.

25lbs, a good king to start the day

Pinks and Coho for a quick afternoon

Seattle Salmon fishing

Fishing was good today, with Kings, Pinks and Silvers in the mix.  The Pink run is ramping up and good success was had by most boats in the Westpoint and Shilshole bay area.  We had some good action on Kings on the West side of the Sound.  Plugs and Spoons were the best lures today, with the fish still in the 60′-80′ range.  The Pinks were in the 50-60′ levels, and large schools were on the surface.

Fishing befor the Phish concert.

Some for sport and some for blood at the point of the knife

Seattle Fishing Kings, and Coho

  Fishing has been good the past week, with some big fish coming to the boat.  We have had our best luck fishing in the 80-120′ range with 40-60′ of cable out.  Best lures have been spoons and hootchies.  The Kings are still moving through in waves and locations have been changing daily.  Coho and Pinks are making their way into the sound, we have had some good action lately on Pinks in the Westpoint area.   The north part of area 10 has been the most consistent producer.  We had a Great White sighting on Sunday morning dont dangle your tows in the water.

A great way to end the day

A nice 15lber for the table

Seattle fishing Kings and Coho

  Fishing today was fair for Kings and Coho.  The best king action today was on Cut Plug Herring fished at 40-60′.  The northern part of Marine area 10 was best for us.  The Coho action has been good at Jeff Head.  Coho have been hitting hootchies fished at 50-60′.  A few Pinks are starting to show, this could be a good sign for action to come.

 

Cheers,

Capt. Matt
