I and many others would love to be out on the Chehalis or Satsop now trying for a B run coho until the end of the month. Rivers have dropped back in after the high water. Lots of surplus hatchery coho (30,000 at last count) at Bingham on the Satsop. But WDFW will drag their feet and be silent and wait until the and of December and not open the rivers up. Then say to the rec anglers that we (WDFW) are sorry but we couldn't justify opening fishing. Then they will follow that with telling the recs to buy their 2024 licenses and we (WDFW) will see you next year. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
