| hey bryce to catch cuttthroat a blue fox work vary well but you need to get by logs and stuff e thats where they like to hide.also if you are going to do some fishing for silvers you should try a 50/50 dick nite or a fat fish good luck |
| Bryce 08/26/2010 19:17:15 GMT |
| @nate what do you catch the cutthroat on? |
| Their aint no head, like steel 08/09/2010 23:24:30 GMT |
| I have done really good up on the Sky. Caught four steelies in about two hours, try red hooks, pink or orange sparkle yarn tipped with shrimp dont forget the corkey. I also cought a five pound rainbow on a smaller gold spoon. |
| spoon man 08/08/2010 17:44:36 GMT |
| it seems steelhead dont hang out long in the snohomish but with this rain, plunking at bob heirman, donkey hole, or lords hill might produce a late coming steel head making a b-line for rieter. wich the probably the place to be right now if you can handle the combat fishing |
| Bryce 08/08/2010 05:03:21 GMT |
| Does the Snohomish have any run of summer steelhead? Or is it alread too late? |
| Jay 08/07/2010 03:28:34 GMT |
| With your bobber try, pink or pink and white or orange jigs tipped with shrimp. Of course water conditions and color play the part. Good Luck! |
| Jay 08/06/2010 23:27:27 GMT |
| Just some suggestions. Try silver dick nites, blue fox spinners, blue fox spoons (pink) or (pautzkes fire cure)/ (borax)cured pink eggs. Other colors work as well. You can bobber fish just up river of the donkey farm. Check out Bob Heirman park. Walk down to river. Trials all over. If you take the left and go way down past the logs. You can use spoons and spinners. Take the right and let me know what you find out. Can get really busy, get their early. I'm still learning. Reports will start to flow onece the river opens, so read all you can. Have Fun. |
| Kea 08/02/2010 03:07:19 GMT |
| Thank you Jay. I know you said to learn from those around me, but what would you recommend if I was going there for the firs time? Plunking, bobber, spoons, etc? Do you know any place for plunking or bobber fishing besides the donkey farm area? |
| Jay 07/31/2010 22:17:09 GMT |
| That's a good spot for plunking. Try the lower side along the Snohomish river rd. When season opens look were the cars are parked. Also follow springhetti rd to 111th st se to old harrison rd. There at the end, you can park. Get there early because it can get crazy. Follow the trails in and find a spot. When river levels are low check these areas and be ready to work it. Learn from those around you and watch what they are using. Water can be deep, so bring a lot of drift gear. Check the tide chart and have fun! |
| Kea 07/28/2010 16:08:50 GMT |
| Bryce or anyone. I'm new to Coho fishing in WA and would like to know where to fish for Coho along the Snohomish? I've tried one place last year in Snohomish (it was across the street from a donkey farm), but had no luck. Any advice would be appreciated. |

Steelhead fishing will close Feb. 18
in five river systems around Puget Sound OLYMPIA – Steelhead fishing will close Feb. 18 in five major river systems in the Puget Sound area to protect wild fish, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) announced today. The closure will affect the Puyallup, Nooksack, Stillaguamish, Samish and Snohomish rivers and their tributaries. Pre-season estimates developed by the department indicate that returns of wild steelhead will fall far short of target levels in all five river systems, said Bob Leland, WDFW steelhead manager. “This is the fourth straight year that we’ve seen a downward trend in wild steelhead returns,” Leland said. “These closures are necessary to meet the conservation objectives of our statewide steelhead management plan and comply with provisions of the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA).” Wild steelhead in the Puget Sound region have been listed as “threatened” under the ESA since 2007. Although anglers are required to release any wild fish they catch in those rivers, some of those fish inevitably die from the experience, Leland said. Rivers closing to steelhead fishing Feb. 18 include: Puyallup River system •Puyallup River mainstem from the 11th St. Bridge in Tacoma upstream to Electron Power Plant Outlet •Carbon River from the mouth to Hwy.162 Bridge •White (Stuck) River from the mouth to R Street Bridge in Auburn Nooksack River system •Nooksack River from the mouth to the confluence of the North and South Forks •North Fork Nooksack from the mouth to Nooksack Falls •South Fork Nooksack from the mouth to Skookum Creek •Middle Fork Nooksack from the mouth to headwaters. Samish River system •Samish River from the mouth to the Hickson Bridge. Stillaguamish River system •Stillaguamish River from sloughs south of Marine Drive to forks. •North Fork of the Stillaguamish from the mouth to Swede Heaven Bridge. •South Fork of the Stillaguamish from the mouth to the Mt Loop Hwy. Bridge (above Granite Falls). •Canyon Creek from the mouth at the South Fork of the Stillaguamish to the forks. Snohomish River system •Snohomish River from mouth (Burlington-Northern railroad bridges) to the confluence of the Skykomish and Snoqualmie rivers including all channels, sloughs, and interconnected waterways. •Snoqualmie River from the mouth to the boat launch at Plum Landing (~1/4 mile below Tokul Creek). •Skykomish River from the mouth to the forks. •North Fork of the Skykomish from the mouth to Deer Falls (about ¼ mile upstream of Goblin Creek). •South Fork of the Skykomish from the mouth to the Sunset Falls Fishway. •Pilchuck River from mouth to the Snohomish city diversion dam. •Sultan River from mouth to the diversion dam at river mile 9.7. •Tolt River from mouth to the confluence of the North and South Fork. •Raging River from the mouth to the Highway 18 Bridge. The Wallace River, Tokul Creek and Snoqualmie River above the boat ramp at Plum Landing will close Feb 28. Reopening dates for all of these waters will be noted in the 2010-11 Fishing in Washington fishing rules pamphlet. |

| That's the ballgame boys - River has been closed to steelheading - Here's looking to Summer!! |
| partypooper 02/09/2010 07:15:53 GMT |
| Not to be a partypooper,but theres just no fish! Theres no water and just no fish period! If anything hit the upper Sky, but again all odds are against you. However if you must fish the Snohomish the steelhead bars are on private property and the next thing to do is fish from a boat. Thats my story and I'm stickin to it!! Your better of getting a couple hookers and some cocaine and staying in.... |
| bryan 02/09/2010 05:22:34 GMT |

Salemtears: Spend a day or two at Reiter Ponds to observe then look at this website. (Look before and after you go each time for reference)
http://waterdata.usgs.gov/wa/nwis/uv?site_no=12134500 Watch the water levels closely (look at median levels to reference the hot zones)- 1/8 jig on 20-24in 6-8# leader to a #10 swivel. Add (3) #3 shot and a 20-30gm float up to 30-36in total length. Put a piece of shrimp on the tip of a nightmare, white, or peach. Toss to edge of big rocks in medium deep rifts and pools - FISH ON!! |
| shellback 01/02/2010 04:42:46 GMT |
| I'm new to this site. Interesting reading this and other river reports' Been out of state the past 10 years. I simple recommendation for "salemtears". Time spent on the river observing is invaluable for you to learn. Water levels will be key in bringing in new fish. Keep your eyes open and emulate others successes. You have to do the work! |

| I will be up on the Sky Monday just below Rieters Ponds in the morning as well with my 10 year old. He mastered Salmon fishing on the Snohomish this Summer and Fall now it is time for him to do some float fishing for Steelies. |
| ironass 12/20/2009 18:26:09 GMT |
| Lets all ignore the pea brains that want to ruin good resource of info! lets keep this a friendly site for those of us that enjoy fishing. I will be fishing the sky monday,let u know what happens! thanks 2 slot slut |
| slot slut 12/20/2009 16:14:21 GMT |
| Anybody that wants to steelhead fish with there kids are the best parents in the world. I commercial fish salmon and sport fish steelhead all winter If you ever need any pointers just let me know . I have way more competion than a bunch of paper pushing part timers that call them selfs fisherman . If you want to know what a real fisherman does come hang out in my world otherwise shut your holes and fish bitches. |
| Ironass 12/02/2009 17:51:17 GMT |
| Thanks Greg!great deal catching the coho:-)I still remember my first fish! |
| Greg 12/01/2009 05:45:00 GMT |
| I failed to mention I did come face to face with a Sea Lion today in the Snohomish River today just east of Bob Heirman park. |
| Greg 12/01/2009 05:29:37 GMT |
| I am with you Ironass...here is a big ole "FU" to the City Steelie Slammers of the fishing world..."Me" I have been taking my 10 year old out on the river this year to introduce to him real fishing...He caught a 12lb Coho on the Snohomish in October and the picture is on our refrigerator. He is now hooked and he shows the picture to anybody that comes over. The experience sure as hell beats sitting infront of a TV, and when the kids get older they relate their fishing experience to catching trout at a trout farm. Since this is a fishing site I will add that the river is still a bit on the high side but it should get better in the next few days due to the lack of rain fall and a dropping freezing level in the mountains. Lastly if you run into any of the Slammers of the world on the river just tell them you paid for your fishing license just like they did so and the river is OPEN!!! so....SUCK IT!!!! |
| Ironass 11/30/2009 06:09:31 GMT |

| umpire 11/29/2009 16:38:13 GMT |
| Thanks for the response Fisheater.I'd love to catch the dirtbags doing this. Hey "me",your point is well taken. The old addage about keeping your secret fishing hole a secret...it's gained new lows. The guys that are being jerks about sharing information are probably first generation video idiots. Who showed THEM? "Catch a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime". These clowns that look down at you for showing up need to stay home!! |
| me 11/28/2009 10:38:23 GMT |
| Why do you guys got to be such jerks about it? You all had to start somewhere too. Nobody just knows exactly what to do the 1st time they get a fishing rod in their hands. My son is not a very good fisherman. He just takes up a seat in my boat, and I miss out on fish because I have to help him learn. I guess since sharing with people who are new and just don't know is such a terrible thing, I'll just not take my son fishing anymore. I'll just make him play video games and watch TV all the time. Wouldn't want to bother the locals by giving my son a good time at a good fishing hole....... |
| City Steelie Slammer 11/28/2009 01:02:10 GMT |
| Every year you local Snohomish guys gather at the river banks to just get in my way,Stay home if your a local to Rieter Ponds and Big Eddy ,most of you have no clue whats going on anyhow. |

| fisheater 11/26/2009 02:25:58 GMT |
| High water will generally lead to drifting corkys and worms. High water = go bigger. Go further upstream and the levels are better and visibilty is 4ft. White/orange and pink/peach are working. |
| better than cabin fever 11/25/2009 06:57:12 GMT |
| go skunked today after stopping at Bill Heirman Reserve (snohomish river)Wallace and N.F. Skykomish confluence. Water was high and on the rise, 1ft visibility max. Doesn't mean there are no fish, just that I don't know how to fish high water here... |

Use this website before you go to determine water levels and river speed. This can be huge to determine your technique and equipment to choose. Snow level is gonna rise a little next few days, so rivers are gonna get a little ugly. Saturday afternoon and Sunday will be best bets. Is Sky is above 10-11000 cfs - Not much gonna happen! |

| fisheater 11/24/2009 15:57:47 GMT |
| Yes, people are catcing fish. There are late summers to play with and the winters are starting up good. Enjoyed fresh steelhead for dinner on Saturday. Reiter Ponds is seeing some, but bring your patience and get ready for BIG CROWDS - Every 5-10ft down the bank. Better to go after 1pm and crowds are lower and fish are still swimming. |

| Jay 11/19/2009 00:37:22 GMT |
| I dont know if you have found information but check out steelheader.net and steelheaduniversity for fishing techniques. Lots of information. An easy place for steelhead is reiter ponds. It can and will get crowded. Good Luck. Rivers are high but fish are on the move. |
| Bryce 11/11/2009 09:22:29 GMT |
| Hey, I was wondering if anybody here could give me any information on winter steelhead fishing? I've lived in Everett for 20 years and never really knew what kind of fishing we had around here(other than in lakes) until I tried my hand at salmon fishing for the 1st time ever this August. I have a boat and live about 2 miles from Rotary Park. Is there any good winter steelhead fishing around there? How do I catch them? |
| chumbawamba 11/02/2009 18:13:17 GMT |
| Thats funny you say that about the chum in seattle....cause i have already caught plenty of chum in the lower green and upper...I think they came really early this year...unlike the silver natives which are now in the green river like crazy...hooked at least 15 silvers this weekend took home 4 worth keeping!! Yes even in the hight milky water there were silvers to be found...funny how people dont fish chocolate water...caught most of them 5 feet from the bank...with spinners.... |
| slot slut 11/02/2009 14:56:42 GMT |
| I'm a commercial gillnetter and it's a fact to say no chums this year . I've been from Pt. roberts to seattle over to hood canal chasing chum they just aren't showing I talk to a boiligist that thinks 4-5 years ago the return fish didnt make it to there spawning habitat they died in the fields during the bad floods . Don't want to rain on the parade but that's what we all have to look forward to this november . On the columbia theres so many coho the hatcherys are killing coho and grinding them up for cat food . they let us fish two coho opening down there which were 12 hours each we had 550 fish each opening . The state needs to manage our resource better .the point is talk to your fellow fisherman and also your state rep. So we can all work together to protect and help our fish in the future.The fact is that WDFW doesn't have a clue look at Alaska's management it's not a joke like WDFW. |
| ben 11/02/2009 01:23:58 GMT |
| Yea Check out Talltailsguideservice.com I fished with Todd last month and to say he can find the fish is an understatement. He said as of late they are still getting lots of coho just got to look under rocks and stumps!! |
| umpire 11/01/2009 15:03:29 GMT |
| One of the guys I fish with said he saw a good handful of people fishing the Sultan river just above the mouth. Water was ugly but what were they thinking?? Oh....I get it...they were just practicing. Is that even open?? |
| Jordan 10/31/2009 17:56:56 GMT |
| Went to Snohomish River today. Same as what Jay said on Wed - zero visibility, water level too high, and zero fish activity. |
| Jay 10/29/2009 05:24:58 GMT |
| Coho is about to end and Chum is starting through november. Check out talltailsguideservice.com website, they have the chart and I think our Fishing reg site has one as well. |
| Ben 10/28/2009 22:13:00 GMT |
| For Snohomish or Skykomish, is now the season for coho or chum? Thanks |
| Jay 10/28/2009 03:51:18 GMT |
| Water visibility on the sky is almost zero but starting to settle. Noticed the water on the sno about the same. No rain tomorrow. Water level is high but dropping. Rain to return Thursday. Hardly any fish activity. |
| Todd 10/27/2009 23:08:17 GMT |
| Did you catch them on the Snohomish or Wallace River? If it was on the Snohomish how were the water conditions??? |

| Patrick 10/24/2009 18:51:02 GMT |
| Umpire - I'm hearing that corkies, yarn and eggs are the preferred and floating a jig with shrimp is also reaaly good right now. |

| Scott, I've never fished the Wallace. Any tips? |
| flyfisherscott 10/24/2009 13:46:33 GMT |
| Started at the Wallce About 7:30 and it wasn't bad until around 9 or 10 and had come up at least 2'and became so dirty. so i went to two bit hole on the Skykomish and with in two hours it had blown out. Did hook two Silvers on the Wallace before the water changed.Im going out Sunday and maybe i'll have better luck. |
| Brian 10/23/2009 02:57:26 GMT |
| My buddy said it was still pretty ugly this morning. Haven't seen it myself, though. Good luck out there! |
| umpire 10/23/2009 02:35:28 GMT |
| So.........after yesterday's deludge, I haven't seen the river. Is it as ugly as I imagine? Anyone catching anything? I got into a bunch of cohos just above Snohomish about 10 days ago and haven't had any luck since. |
| Greg 10/22/2009 21:59:41 GMT |
| If you do not like golf balls in your yard...don't buy a house on a golf course...just and observation. |
| Patrick 10/22/2009 16:26:48 GMT |
| Not to linger as this is a fishing report blog, but he claims his property line is the median river mark. The river is high now, covering the rocks, so to traverse means to walk on his property unless you have waders and walk in the water. The erosion bit is a bit ridiculous, as the boats screaming by and the heavy rains, do more for the issue than feet do. We just finish it off by breaking off chunks, and I believe that is where he takes issue. |
| flyfisherscott 10/22/2009 03:57:25 GMT |
| What ever happened to the high mark? Check with D.N.R., Stay on the rocks. |
| umpire 10/22/2009 02:48:14 GMT |
|
I suppose anything is possible, but THAT is highly unlikely.
Accerlerated erosion from foot traffic? Is this on the Woodinville side of the river downstream from the bridge? |
| Patrick 10/21/2009 15:29:59 GMT |
| He's worried about the bank erosion caused by the foot traffic. Sad too is that myself and my buddies, we always fill our net with garbage and haul out as we are leaving. |

| I don't blame him. There's a rediculous amount of garbage along the bank. Its a shame, that was the best stop behind that corner. |
| Patrick 10/21/2009 03:12:16 GMT |
| The owner of the land at 522, Robert @ 13417 Elliott Rd is out enforcing his property rights, so don't try to walk along the bank or he will threaten criminal trespassing against you. Stay to the bridge - water is pretty dead and high right now. If you want to head downstream, you need waders to walk in the water because Mr McNeill will not allow you on his land! |
| Brian 10/20/2009 21:43:44 GMT |
| Anyone go out today? How is the river looking? |
| kevin 10/20/2009 00:20:29 GMT |
| Fished at the 522 bridge. this morn. water is a litle to high, but it is dropping. saw fish rolling! |
| Brian 10/19/2009 20:37:13 GMT |
| Took boat off hatchery. Saw a few boats and bank anglers. No one hooking up. Saw a few nice jumpers. Water running too high, fast and muddy. Maybe tomorrow or a couple more days. Rain coming back in this week so may be longer. Better for deer hunting. Good luck! |
| Ben 10/19/2009 19:00:41 GMT |
|
Jay - Thanks for the tips on the Wiggle. I want to see if it better than casting a dicknite or corkies :)
Happy fishing everyone. Hope to see the river stable in the next couple of days. |
| Brian 10/19/2009 14:15:04 GMT |
| River should be good today, better tomorrow. Taking boat out this morning for a run. Will post info later today. Good luck out there! |
| Greg 10/19/2009 06:07:31 GMT |
|
Is the irver totally blown out or is there still a shot at catching fish???? and Jay thanks for the heads up.
|
| Jay 10/19/2009 04:32:23 GMT |
| Forgot to mention to make sure your plug is running straight. Check and tune it. This will increase your chances. |
| Jay 10/19/2009 04:17:12 GMT |
| Just your regular cast and medium retrieve. These fish that we caught were hanging close to the bank. 3-12ft away. Divers did all the work. Nothing special with hooks on lure. Just tie it on using an improved clinch knot and let her fly. Amazing! |
| Gordie 10/19/2009 03:31:09 GMT |
| Jay- Good work. Were you doing a cast and retrieve with the warts? (weightless I assume) Or were you plunking them on the bottom? |
| Bruce 10/19/2009 00:39:03 GMT |
| any reports on the wallace River yet? |
| Jay 10/18/2009 00:13:41 GMT |
| We caught one trolling but the rest was casting off the boat. Divers do a good job from shore. They do have different sizes, so knowing what depth to dive is also important. The water we fished in ranged from 3-12 ft. We used 10 lbs test line on a ultra lite fishing pole. Mainline was tied straight to lure. We had no problems with fighting fish. |
| Ben 10/17/2009 22:41:50 GMT |
|
Jay, did you trolled the Wiggle wart behind your boat or you casted it from river bank. I never fish with Wiggle wart before. Please help.
Thanks Jay |
| Jay 10/17/2009 22:16:10 GMT |
| We had 3 fishing off the boat and 1 fish we let go. Tall Tails Guide service, Daniel Bonner was Fantastic! Fished off a Wooldridge jet boat. Shallows was not problem. Let me tell you it was shallow in many parts. That changed over night. Fish on! |
| Jay 10/17/2009 22:09:26 GMT |
| I was there yesterday and saw silvers on the move. Employed the services of a guide and fished off Lewis Street bridge in Monroe and other places off the sky. Used wiggle wart hot tiger 074 and landed 7 silvers. The lure is no secret, every fishing shop would recommend them. It was a Great Day! |
| Bruce 10/17/2009 17:56:45 GMT |
| Hey just to let everyone know the Snohomish is on the rise and starting to change color plus a lot of tree and branches comming down as of the this morning. |
| Greg 10/17/2009 05:22:48 GMT |
| If anybody gets down to the river this weekend can you give everybody a heads up if the river is washed out or not with all of this rain. |
| Devon 10/17/2009 00:42:57 GMT |
| If had to guess the corkies and yarn were chartruese (sp)! Nice fish! |
| Brian 10/16/2009 22:08:41 GMT |
| Very nice! What color was the corkie and yarn you were using? No dice for me today. Tomorrow am will be in the boat trolling. |
| jumpin 10/16/2009 19:12:35 GMT |
| 9 lb cromer last nite @ bcracker bar on corkie & yarn |
| Brian 10/16/2009 14:13:19 GMT |
| No problem Devon. Heading out again this morning to same spot. Taking boat out tomorrow am. Will post results. Good luck everyone! |
| Devon 10/16/2009 01:58:11 GMT |
| Thanks for the update Brian! |
| Jay 10/16/2009 00:32:41 GMT |
| 10-13-09 AM- Fished off Shorts school Rd in Snohomish across from Thomas Eddy and saw 4 silvers caught. Drifting silver dicknites and plunking eggs. No luck for me but nice to see! |
| Brian 10/15/2009 23:39:21 GMT |
| Water condition was low visability and slow current. No luck this afternoon either. |
| Devon 10/15/2009 20:07:50 GMT |
| What was the condition of the water where you were fishing at Brian? |
| Nick 10/15/2009 19:46:01 GMT |
| went up to 522 last weekend, no luck for silvers. Horrified when i saw people still keeping pinks. |
| Brian 10/15/2009 18:48:20 GMT |
| Fished north of boat launch this morning. Saw a few silvers jumping but no hook ups. Hopefully afternoon will be better on incoming tide. Crome #1 Dick Nite had two nice strikes. |
| bounski 10/13/2009 21:13:54 GMT |

| Jay 10/11/2009 01:18:22 GMT |
| From the parking area. Go Straight from parking area to the river, fish seems to hold in front, slightly to the left and way right. Follow worn trails. Good Luck! |
| Jay 10/11/2009 01:07:48 GMT |
| Start from Hwy 9/Williams Rd. Go East on Williams Rd and make a right on Airport way which becomes Springhetti Rd. From Springhetti Rd make a left on to 111th Street SE and go to the end of the street. You will need the hang tag. The area does get busy. Try off times and river seems deeper to the middle. Maybe 15ft or more. You can google map area of snohomish/roads |
| ajsh 10/10/2009 16:49:41 GMT |
| where is 111th street |
| Jay 10/10/2009 00:38:24 GMT |
| Fish seem to be holding just above the town of Snohomish. Access is through 111th Street. Fishing off the bank/dike. Saw a couple landed. Spinners and silver spoons. Waiting for the surge when big rain falls! |
| Devon 10/09/2009 15:33:57 GMT |
| The silvers are there......just takes some patience....good luck to everyone this weekend! |
| abu garcia 10/09/2009 02:20:46 GMT |

| Spent 3 hours on the bank this morning at Hiram wildlife park..No Silvers just near dead Pinks...I used various color combinations of Corkies, same thing with Dick Nites, even busted out crank bait...NOTHING!!! Bring on the rain! |

| went out on the 6th. bout a mile west of snohomish. nothing, only zombie humpys. did i miss something? the run cant be over, hell its just started! where are they!? |

| LLiu 10/06/2009 22:03:00 GMT |
| @Jokl: Very interesting re: use of toothpaste! Gotta try that next time! :-) |
| LLiu 10/06/2009 22:01:24 GMT |
| What works for me and I've also seen for others: green/white size 1 Dick Nite spoons - 50/50 does work better. Also, yellow/green corky w/ florescent green yarn (though pink yarn also works). |
| Mr. Jokl 10/06/2009 21:45:54 GMT |
|
i am using crest whitening toothpaste
|
| Kelly 10/06/2009 16:36:59 GMT |
| On the river now, not a single fish sighted. Anyone, where the heck are all the silvers going? I'm just up river from Rotary park. |
| Devon 10/06/2009 04:11:28 GMT |
| Ok....please share...what kind of toothpaste? |
| Milan from India 10/06/2009 02:46:38 GMT |
| Thanx Mr. Jokl. Tothpaste works great. Monday got 2 silvers at Snohomish town. |
| slot slut 10/05/2009 18:11:52 GMT |
| go buy a puget sound drift permit it opens at the mouth of the river tuesday night at 6 pm we will be there getting our share of the fish you all hate netters but we only get 8% of the run the indians and sports get the rest please b kind to white man gillnetters thank you |
| kelly 10/05/2009 18:06:28 GMT |
| slow slow slow. Fish rolling everywhere but no bites or strikes. Using buzz bomb(pink) as well as dick nite. If anyone has any better ideas please do tell |
| Patrick 10/04/2009 23:00:19 GMT |
| Been fishing Thomas Eddy - Still lots of pink activity - will you please go away!! Silvers are being shy. Only seeing one or two per day coming out. Using Dick nite 50/50 and Silver/Chartreuse. |
| Mr. Jokl 10/03/2009 14:28:27 GMT |
| Fished at Snohomish yesterday and caught 3 silvers and one king. Using dick nite 50/50 with small coat of tothpaste. Works great !!! |
| Milan from India 10/01/2009 19:11:35 GMT |
| Anyone saw sign of shark ? |
| kevin 10/01/2009 15:27:12 GMT |
| fished at my Bro's on Weds on the Sky bout 4 miles up from monroe saw no evidence of silvers yet |
| Brian B 10/01/2009 15:22:05 GMT |
| Fished just north of the trestle in Snohomish yesterday. Saw a couple of nice silvers landed. Had a great bite on a Dick Nite 50/50 but that was it for me. A guy landed a nice silver with a white head jig that had a green skirt. |
| Rick 09/30/2009 18:49:25 GMT |
| Fished last Friday N. of 522 bridge. I didn't do very well but I met a guy named Hans that gave me a 3/8oz. Pink jig w/purple and red feathers he made. He said he was a moderator for a fishin blog. Anyone know him and or the blog? |
| Devon 09/29/2009 21:23:00 GMT |
| Used a wee dick nite to catch the silvers....4-5ft of leader with a single weight above the swivel..it takes patience and some luck as well! |
| Milan z Indie 09/29/2009 03:16:26 GMT |
| I fishing for sharks, curaci |

Fished the snohomish yesterday and caught a humpy
|
| Devon 09/28/2009 19:38:14 GMT |
| Fished the Snohomish both Fri/Sat....tons of silver's jumping everywhere. My buddy and I each caught one silver, each weighing close to 10 lbs each....these fish take lots of patience to catch! |
| Rich 09/28/2009 03:30:36 GMT |
| went out this weekend kinda slow but lots of fish. finaly hooked into a few silvers at the end of the day with a 50/50 dicknight. good luck to all |
| Mike 09/27/2009 15:18:03 GMT |
| Sultan area producing Silvers now! |
| Patrick 09/24/2009 04:50:13 GMT |
| 522/Elliot Rd Area is still producing Pinks - Jig a pink shrimp with 1/4oz head - medium retrieve and short jig strokes will produce - Long strokes giving too many foul hooks. Still getting bright hens 3-4 pounders. Bucks are getting old. Silvers are showing but not ready yet - Get noisy - spinners and Little buds will work early - 50/50 dick nites and try float rigs by late next week - |
| Norm L 09/23/2009 14:59:23 GMT |
| Forget the humpy's, time to catch some silvers. 3-way swivel with 5 foot leader and small green/crome or brass crome dick night. 12 inch leader with 3/4 ounce ball sinker in middle. Cast and retrieve very slowly, bouncing it on the bottom. You will loose gear but the reward will be worth it if you stick to it. Spoons and spinners will work well too. Good luck! |
| hahahahahhaha 09/22/2009 23:07:18 GMT |
| caught tons of humpies in the town of snohomish |
| zach 09/22/2009 19:46:44 GMT |

| Brian B 09/18/2009 22:39:35 GMT |
| Fished Monroe area this morning, landed two Pinks right off the bat, then the bite died down about 1pm. Saw a few silvers jumping. Humpy's loving the pink mini-squid jig! |
| Robert P. 09/18/2009 12:19:24 GMT |
| I have been fishing the river just south of Snohomish. I have not landed even 1 fish in a week. But the river is full of fish. Jusmping most of the day at about 30 per minute. Maybe I am using the wrong lures. Very frustraiting.Almost landed a steelhead. Have been seeing alot of silver. |
| MichaelM 09/16/2009 16:16:04 GMT |

| Mike 09/15/2009 01:29:47 GMT |

| TOM 09/11/2009 03:29:10 GMT |
| USE PINK SPOONS WHEN THE RIVER IS STAG AND WHEN IT FLOWS TWOARD THE SOUNF SWITCH OVER TO BUZZ BOMBS... YOU WILL CATCH 1 FOR EVERY 3 YOU HOOK .. SOFT MOUTH TENDS TO THROW THE SINGLE UN BARBED HOOK... IF YOU FISH WITH THE THREE PRONG BARBED YOU WILL LIMIT OUT IN A HOUR....I AM JUST TO HONEST FOR MY OWN GOOD...IF YOU HAVE NEVER HOOKED A HUMPY OK MEAT BUT THEY FIGHT LIKE A BASS TIRE THE BASSTARDS OUT... BUT THEN AGAIN THEY COME IN SCOOLS SO THE FASTER YOU LAND THEM THE FASTER YOU GET THE NEXT ONE... GOOD FISHING ALL...PS SOME OF THE BOATERS ARE REAL A HOLE S AND EVEN IF THE RIVER IS 200 YDS WIDE THEY WILL TROLL RIGHT IN FRINT OF YOU/// MY SUGGEST IS TO CAST OVER THERE LIVES TELL THEM TO SLACK OFF REAL IN AND CUT THERE MF LIVE AND KEEP THERE JIG OR BETTER YET THROW IT AT THEM..DO YOU THINK THERE GOING TO BEACH THERE BOAT FOR A 4 BUCK JIG KEEP IT AND TEACH THESE BASTARDS A LESSON .I HAVE AND WILL DO IT OVER AND OVER. IF THEY LOOK TOUGHF WHEN I SEE THEM COMMING I WILL JUST BOLT.. ALSO LOOK AT THE RIVER YOU WILL SEE SILVER IN THE WATER THAT IS A BUCH OF HUMPS CAST AHEAD OF THEM AND IF U SEE A JUMPER DONT FREAK THERE MORE SOME WHERE CLOSE CAST IN THE GEN, DIRCT. DO NOT TRY AND SET THE HOOK TO HARD SOFT MOUTH U WILL JUST TEAR HIM UP.. IF IT IS A HER KEEP THE EGGS STEEL HEAD WILL RUN IN OCT.. AND U WILL CATCH a 50LB FISH. DONT FREEZE THEM PUT IN A ZIPLOCK AND PUT IN FRIDGE FOR A FEW WEEKS... GOOD LUCK ALL U AND MY FINAL NOTE GO DAWGS(DIE U EVIL CATS)(COUGS) |

To my suprise I picked up a smallmouth bass of about 8 inches..Didn't know they were in the Snohomish so for you bass anglers this may be a new spot for river bass. While waiting for the hords of silvers. |
