Firstr off do you boat fish or bank I'm assuming boat. The fishin starts up in August but it is a sure bet to catch a fish from around sep 5 to sep 14th. We caught at least one each day during that stretch and have limited the boat out on the 8, 9, 10, and 11th three years in a row. It's easy to find this zipper lip fishin hole just look for the 300 other boats. You fish in 50 feet of water and an alvin type of lure is the one too go with I prefer the K Lure with a treble hook myself. You have to remember you can only keep one chinook a day out of your two salmon a day limit though this year. Hope this helped.
