that is our experience as well. It is mostly all resident coho in July and August with a some nice ocean returning coho showing up in mid August... probably the early returning Quill, Skok, Gamble bay fish

Before the algae problems in hood canal, we would really start to get into the big ocean returning coho in mid September and fish them all the way thru Halloween.
