I figured I’d bump this thread since salmon season is fast approaching. I’ve noticed over the last few years more and, more people are fishing.
Maybe if there are any newcomers to salmon fishing, this thread will help.
For those that are already chasing them, let see how you tie up.
Happy Friday fellas.
Looking forward to your slaying adventures. The only salmon around here is at the fish counter.
Salmon are finally in…,,
Chance is in his element!

So awesome.
Some good eats there and a number of healthy meals. And the health benefits of just being outside.
I've been getting some walleyes and smallmouth this year, nothing to brag about.
The wife and I might hit a lake tomorrow for some pan fish. See how we do.
Fishing is fishing. Bass. Salmon. It doesn’t matter. Enjoy every serving of it and do it as much as you can. Be sure to post pics man.
I haven’t gotten out as much as I’d like. I’m hoping to get out more in October when the coho show up. That’s my favorite species to chase. Especially around the Grey’s Harbor tributaries. Hint hint.
To many people fishing around the Minter fishing hatchery, clogs the 2 lane road by it. Seen some big fish caught.
Yeah I hate that place. I’ve been there a few times when other places were slow.
You used to be able to fish at night there. Meaning after midnight, you better always have your first limit by then. Going home with eight fish in a nights work was worth it.
They restricted it, changed the boundaries and, added cameras to catch snaggers. I will stand firm on not ever going there anymore.
Grey’s harbor tributaries get somewhat crowded at times but, the fishing is also more relaxing than a lot of other places.
My daughter lives just around the corner from Minter, surprising there isn't more accidents there. I heard they had closed it down some, still gets very crowded. Rough looking crowd.
I’m gonna need some Salmon Steaks. Styrofoam cooler and some dry ice……….
Yum!
Nice fish!
Just had some for dinner an hour ago camping.
Wish I could say I caught it.
Hope
You enjoy it brother.
Had the day off so, I hit the river today. Caught four and, kept two. The meat turned out to be surprisingly high quality considering the larger fish I kept wasn’t as chrome as the smaller one. It got even darker in the bag in ice. Same fish cut as the one with the rod in the pic.
For reference, that knife is 12” long
Fresh Sashimi!
Looks awesome.
Some good eats there.
Hell yeah!
My son has been slay’n the salmon so far this year.
I am waiting for the coho season to kick off.
First rain in October to get the river levels up and, I’ll be back out. The rivers I fish for chinook were super crowded so, I missed most of it while staying home exercising.
Here you go Chance…..My Oldest caught these in area 802 .

My oldest Buddy from high school has been hit’n it pretty hard out there too. He’s fishing around South Whidbey Island.
Coho season has begun.
Nice man! That one at the top is a beaut! Certainly hasn’t been in the river very long as chrome as it is.😎
Love it brother! When's the fish and beer party?
