The Hoh is about three hours from Tacoma. Hint: don't drive through Aberdeen. Those cops have a bad reputation for aggressively enforcing the town's speed limit.

The Hoh is closed this spring for chinook. It may open in June for Spring Jacks and summer-run steelies. But lately these fish have been few and far between in June. You're more likely to catch an outgoing winter-run snake during this time. Skip it.

Schitzo, sounds like you're a bank maggot. If you really want to catch a springer on the peninsula. Either hire a tribal guide or head north to the SolDuc. Fish the lower river at the bark hole or confluence. Use fresh sandshrimp, eggs drift-plunking and throw vibraxes or teardrop spoons.
