Judging from today's fish and fisherman count, from the weekend, in the Seattle Times I would say Seiku.

I just got a great report from a friend that did real good at Meadow Pt. today. Just troll cut plug herring fairly fast with 4 ounce sinker and put out about 50 pulls of line.

Cigar, where's Medow Pt? Anyone doing any good outside of Edmonds or Elliot Bay?

Meadow is at the North end of Shilshoe Bay (just North of the Marina)

Are we getting any size to these Silvers yet?

I will be heading toward the north sound on Saturday...... Usually fish West Point and Meadows for silvers, but lately they have been little guys not worth the trip. Thought I might head up to Everrett and points north.

Any thoughts or info would be great!

I personally would stick to points around the south end of Admiralty inlet. This would be possession, point no point, Jeff Head, edmonds, shipwreck, etc.
That is the first place they will show up, and we all know they have been taking their sweet time this year.

I assume that all of the snohomish river system silvers go around the south end of Whidbey to get to the mouth. I could be wrong.

Plus in these areas you have a shot at catching any fish milling around in the open water south of Whidbey that is migrating to any other river systems in the south sound.

So who all is fishing the Edmonds derby this weekend?? We will have three boats out there to give you all a run for the money.

Possession was good this morning using a green/white hootchie w/ white dodger and herring strip. Lots of fish and lots of bait. Fish are between 3-7 lbs and getting bigger by the day. Find the tide rips and bait and you will definitely find silvers.

Meadow Point was red hot for my boat Wednesday. Two nice 6-7 pounders and two smaller 3-4 pounders. Off the water by 9am. Full report over at WashingtonLakes.com.

Them silvers are minnows...the zipper has piggies. :p

hi mike, let met take a wild guess, the 6to7 pounders were females and the 3to4's were males, at leat thats what i've been running in to we've been dooing pretty good, for those interested try a small o/o sep's flasher with the green prissim so far that been my hot ticket with a herring helmet speed about 1.8. herring roll more importanr than speed, get good action and 3.0 is not nessary the males seem to be running smaller?

Nice post Gooose. Lots of help. I'm heading to Sekiu and/or Neah Bay this weekend. I'll let you all know how it was on Sunday.

Back to top. Anybody getting any silvers? We're going to go out this weekend to hit the salt and maybe a river or two. Come on rain!!!

Thanks ET...if you can't figure out where I'm nailen chrome toads ... I suggest you do a search....never mind with the straits report for me personnally as that is in reality puny compared to what I'm experiencing! I felt like I was in Alaska tonite!

Goose whee are you nailing those toads?

Never mind Goose, we'll see you in the morning.

I won't be there til around 4pm Steelheadman ....fricken work !
But thats the witching hour anyway :p !

I just heard that the mouth of the puyallup is hoppin right now. Silvers jumping everywhere and even the occasional king.

FFF, your IMAGES are not working for you!
