Have you ever wanted to make a trip to fish for Salmon in the Strait? Fishing in early July in the interior of Puget Sound can be good, but it also can be a grind-it-out affair as we wait for the bulk of the run to make its way inland.
Why not go to where the fish are? We will attempt to share everything we learned from our 3-day trip out west that might help you have a successful trip fishing the Strait for salmon in early July.
Are you repelling fish with your downrigger wire? Just switch to braid right? You don’t have this concern of repelling fish with braid, but you also don’t have the advantage of attracting fish with the electrical charge being put out by your downrigger wire either.
If you had a bad season of fishing with wire, are you worried that a mystery electrical issue is the root cause?
Unfortunately, almost all the news on setting the 2019 Salmon Seasons is bad. Yes, there are more coho this year than in previous years. Yes, we need to do our part for conservation purposes and the SRKW situation, but some of the season cuts don’t quite make sense to me.
Anyone who has fished for Puget Sound salmon has no doubt heard of (or experienced) the “good old days”. We’ve all heard the many theories about what has happened to the great abundance of fish.
I just recently finished reading a fantastic book on the history of Puget Sound salmon runs that is a must read for anyone interested in what has happened to these great runs of fish that once made Puget Sound the center of all salmon fishing and more importantly to glean insights about where we are going.
NWSportsmanmag.com covered the North of Falcon Salmon forecast reveal with a great article outlining what to expect. You never know exactly what to expect, but based on some of the macro trends we’ve been following, the forecast isn’t a huge surprise. I’m personally excited about a few of these forecasts
Some of us have way too much salmon in the freezer (what my wife tells me), turning it into Salmon Poke is one of my favorite of the many preparation styles out there.
The Salmon for Soldiers fishing event is a can’t miss event on the fishing calendar for me. As boat owners we are so blessed, why not take this opportunity to give back to the service men and women who have put it all on the line?
As they say at SFS: Thank you for your service and welcome home!
