Fear not.... the fish ARE coming.

The appearance of coastal coho may not have made much of a splash on the radar screen of the Chehalis Basin recreational fishery, but neighboring drainages to the north are absolutely stuffed with them.

Two days of tribal gillnetting on the Quinault and Queets have produced 81,000 pounds at the Taholah fish house, mostly coho. Literally every tote in the house was full of salmon.

At a 9 pound average, that's 9,000 salmon in 2 days.

Now that's GOOD fishin'!
