Samish - I believe late August / early Sept. is when the king 'fishin' happens there. (term 'fishin' used loosely)

Skagit - Not much of a summer steelhead river and closed to retention of chinook. Lots of upstream dollies/bull trout but you'll have to fish above the Sauk to find any vis.

I'd keep tryin' the Sky. The more you do, the better your odds.
