When I open up the link, I'm getting the 2007 (not 2008) totals for the Fuller Bridge ramp, which they apparently haven't updated...Is that what you're focusing on? Was it open for Chinook retention at this time (October) last year?

I noticed that too Bart, where it shows catches for days in October that we haven't reached yet.

So, along the same lines...I got to fish the Chehalis from Friends Landing up to the Monte Bridge Sunday for the very first time..(new to the South Sound)....Visibility was less than two feet and out of 20 boats we asked, one boat had one fish...I was wondering if anyone had fished higher up and avoided the mud and managed to get some fish...The Satsop and 'Nooch both looked muddy...did they fish?

I think what fnp is trying to say is that Kings were closed in the Chehalis and yet reported as harvested...is that right fnp?

I'm to old to remember if Kings were open and since I dont keep kings anyways it usually doesn't personally matter.

The Chehalis was open for king retention last year, and the link is possibly showing 2007 data for Fuller bridge creel checks, even though the other areas detailed are from this year.

It's 2007 data, it's been like that since I first looked at it in August.

Black Lake Bart,

I fished the Chehalis above the Satsop and it is very very slow.

It's getting to the point when you can't trust the government to publish correct information anymore.

Fished the satsop and chehalis on sunday, few fish - mostly jacks and colored up chinook rolling, satsop was about 6" vis, chehalis was better but not good. Up high on the satsop was better vis, but not many fish and no biters - they were moving through fast.

Good eye guys... I didn't even look at the dates. The only thing that caught my eye was all of the reported chinook.

Has anyone contacted DFW to tell them they are still displaying last year's data?

I saw the Friends landing and South Monte' were blank. Wonder why they showed data there?
