Yes, there is a season on the Skagit. (See page 49 of the regs.)

It is only open from the Dalles Bridge (on Concrete-Sauk Valley Road.) to a point 200' above the east bank of the Baker.

I've never fished for them...yet, so can't say what will, won't work, but you can bet on July 1, early am, I'll be sitting on the beach somewhere with a cup of coffee and some kind of gear in the water looking for one!

I hear that a ton of people fish the Baker stretch from the mouth to the Hwy. 20 bridge...that is going to be a combat fishery, for sure. I don't want any part of it.
