i took pic of boat that was high and dry...took till early afternoon to float off the bar...

Put in at Westport, Tue. about noon. 4 for 4. 2 kings, 2 silvers. Kings were 15 and 25. Silvers were look alike 10lb bucks. Looking forward to the rest of my vacation. Good start so far. Not seeing a huge number of fish being caught.

DrifterWA, Is the launch area still available that You use ? I make a rare appearance this weekend.

Slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Nuff said.

Woof, woof, woof......actual caught/and released a Chum, 10/4/2012. Seems early for Chum!!!!!!

Wonder how many are showing up in the gill netting, that has been taking place????????

Though not unheard of. I caught one on the lower wynoochee 6-7 years ago in mid-August. Had to do a double-take a few times to believe what I was seeing. Twas' the real deal.

Been told there in the satsop already to, can't figure out how they got up there since you could pee in it and it would come up a foot. Slow day at Monte today zippo . Spoke with the fish checker late yesterday 70 fish for 70 boats ONLY 4 kings suckie

Week out but......

Sunday 7 - 11:30.......no fish in my boat.....lot's of other boats, same way but did see 2 fish caught, so they would say the fishing was good. It seemed that once the tide turned, all the fish stopped showing. My boat was placed where I could look both ways, up and down river, nothing, zero....packed it in and went home..........tomorrow is another day!!!!

2 of us.....twitched jigs, spinners(with hoochies and prawns), and plugs.....

Saw DWA a ways below me today but didn't make it to him.

Got a decent hen on a jig first thing and then nothing. Off the water by 10:30.

Lots of fish, lots of people, and lots of long faces.

On another note, I tried jig swimming with a 7' rod for the first time. I liked it. Seems like I felt the fish sooner than I normally would have.

Any body fishen the Bay, Johns River area? Netting going on in the bay or just the rivers now? Planning on heading back up there Tuesday for a few days?

Fishenfool:

QIN......Netting 12:00 Sunday - Thursday 10/11/2012 12:00

Set nets ---- Power lines just below the Wynoochee to 101 Bridge and Gill nets from Cosie to Johns River. Come on down, join the other Sportsmen and enjoy the time in Region 6.

Bring $$$$$$$$

Tried S. Monte again yesterday. Must have been 50 trailers parked there. I had to "invent" a parking space. Same sad song for me and most others, although I did catch a nice jack. Fish checker said she had only checked five adults. Should have talked to her before launching; could have watched the Seahawks instead.

I must say that, despite the crappy fishing, I have really enjoyed doing short, lazy floats in this beautiful weather. Not the usual fall experience. Still, I'm hoping for a good rain this weekend so folks can get up in the woods to hunt and the fish can start moving in earnest.

the way it looks the rain is comming

Well now this is a change in the weather forecast! Look to next Friday right on to Tuesday.
