I stopped by the Lowell ramp yesterday on the way home from errands in Everett.

Seeing boats on the river and one coming into the ramp, I looped through and talked to the guys that just pulled out.

They hooked five and boated three, commenting that the silvers are early. They also saw other boats hooked up.

Might be worth a shot.

On the way, since the rest of the world is fishing the Edmonds Coho derby...

I was up working on the river on Thurs and saw LOTS of jumper from Rotary Park, up to the "No Wake" house before Snoho. Looked like pinks were in with what I saw jumping. Interested to know how the Pilchuck area is fishing, it can get really plugged with fish this time of year with such low flow conditions.

I am hitting the salt this PM for the evening tide change, looks to be a great exchange at only about a foot. Fishing the lower Snoho first light tomorrow since the forecast is calling for 20kts winds outside.

Give a report when you get back RognSue.

This is not early for Snohomish Silvers

We fished an area that had supposedly been "hot" most of the week, I caught one and that was the only fish we saw get netted the entire morning. Very few jumping and not much on the screen.

We fished 8-12:00 (incoming tide was 7-1:00) We saw 1 fish roll and caught 1 sea run cutthroat 14-15" on a plug...pretty slow, but they'll be filling the river soon.

Fished about a mile up from Rotary this AM in with about 20 other boats, RottenChum being one of them. Tons of fish rolling from Norwegian Cove up to about a mile below HWY 9. Fished the incoming. 1 smolt, 1 sculpin, no silvers.... bite was really slow. Saw 2 boated for everyone out there.

Fished A9 last night in front of Edm from 4-5:30 and went 4-5, 9lb being the biggest. Tonights rain should help bring temps down and add some fresh water to the system.

We fished above the Snohomish launch today from around 10:30-2pm. Lots of fish rolling and we hooked into a lot of smolts but no silvers. Only saw one fish caught out of around 6-8 boats. I freakin totaled my kicker motor because I didn't raise it when dropping my drift boat into the water. Had to row the whole time trolling dick nites.
