I have fished the Snohomish for years for humpies and have done very well. Several years ago the hot lure was the "ace bait spoon". No longer in business, but it could catch fish. The "humpy special " spoon resembles it, but doesn't have the same weight or flutter. Next, came the "Hot Rod" spoon in hot pink and white lightning bolt. I would remove the red plastic "flicker" and treble hook, add a single siwash and paint the back white. In 3/8 oz, it was unbeatable. They don't make that spoon anymore either. Then it was the Dick Nite spoon(my favorite way to fish now). But now most anglers are opting for pink jigs and good reason, they work.

Unfortunately, on the Snohomish, you will also see bankies throwing large buzz bombs with treble hooks. It is amazing that these anglers will yell out, "this one bit hard!" as they reel it in sideways with the buzz bomb imbedded in the fish's side. mad

Had to vent a little there, sorry.

Good luck fishing for the pinks. I enjoy eating them, too. Teriyaki barbecue works for me. beer
