Well here is another observation ..... NO guides were working the Chehalis pump house area. The "fish" have not been staging in the area I choose to fish. Not many spinner or twitching fishermen in this same area and its been that way for the past 6-7 years.

The staging area has changed, why is anyone's guess.....I can go though a whole tide and not see a fish roll but still catch moving fish.

Been retired since 1997, widower since 2011 so I fish LOTS !!!!!!! For many years my fishing was spinners and plugs around "wood". Twitching, once I got started, was deadly because the fish were staging, Chehalis and lower Satsop was a "twitching paradise" and still VERY effective, just not where I fish.

Oh, if you like to fish Chum.....there are moving.....NOW!!!!!!!
