I have been fishing Lincoln Park and Fort Casey without success so far. Anyone knows a good salt/river spot for coho for us poor boatless anglers? Thanks!

Hey Jerry,
I have actually used herrign at Ft casey, but since it's a little far from where I live (Woodinville), I have been throwing Buzzbombs at Lincoln Park. I should try other spots, but which ones?

Hey GMan, I agree with Summer Run, Kayak Point/Port Susan is 'starting' to building into a really good Coho fishery right now. I've nailed 3 from shore over the past week (a mile or 2 South of Kayak Park). More and more fish are showing every day. I've had the most success with a 'Pink' (not Red) #4 Blue Fox Vibrax spinner soaked in Mikes Herring Oil... the flounder and sculpins seem to find it fascinating as well... "My" best-bite comes between 2 hours AFTER low tide to 1 hour AFTER high tide... hope this helps... Good luck! Gator

Hey Gar, Good to hear you nailed 3 fish!! There should be more fish stacking in that area by now. I think I'll give it another shot this weekend.

I have to agree I have seen little relation to tide seems morning and evening have a greater impact than the tide. I've hooked up at low tides and high tides, but I fish early first light.

I've caught my silvers on blue and green Blue Fox #5 spinners, don't think the color matters much it's the flash of the blade that attracts.

A friend of mine was standing in waist deep water under the Narrows Bridge; he was holding a lingcod he had speared, and was contemplating the fine fish dinner he would be enjoying in a few hours. A seal swimming unnoticed nearby was having similar thoughts. Approaching underwater, the seal brushed against my friend's legs, startling him, and then ripped the ling from his grasp. Keep your salmon on a stringer in three or four feet of water? Do you feel lucky?

Then I guess I made the right choice usually the seals just move on, but this one just kept getting closer so I took my silver and left 8)
