Yeah I'd like to think we could fish over the chum in the N. Fork this year but we'll see. I don't keep them but like to find a pod and work 'em over with my fly rod...do you have last year's regs on you? I thought the season for salmon last year went until Dec 31, but the season for coho closed Oct. 31. Were all those guys dabbing shrimp oil on their green corkies and green yearn at the Mosquito Lake road bridge really pretending to fish for steelhead? lol

All this also makes me think perhaps the Bellingham Herald wasn't really mistaken after all--since it seems the WDFW themselves have deemed the North Fork both open and closed...
