Next week I am off from work, and I am looking for some salty chum action on my fly rod. Would you folks have any suggestions on where I should go to see a little action?

Try Eagle Creek on the Hood. It's a favorite fly rod area. Or you could try Chico Creek In Bremeron. Then there's all the creeks and estuaries in the South Sound. The Union River mouth near Belfair is also a good place. I'd look into an area that you can fish multiple spots as it is earlyin the run and some places don't have fish yet.

To my knowledge John's Creek usually has one of the first chum runs.

I work near Mud Bay and was down there today during high tide. I saw no fish as of yet down there.

Where is John's Creek?

I have asked around and searched the net, and all I get is a guess that it is the Hoodsport fun and games creek.

John's Creek is near Shelton.

good old chico creek is a good place to line a chum around now.They should be turning the corner as me and a bud ran into a school between the two bridges a couple of days ago.You wont see me down there though.There is a better spot in the same bay nobody uses.

Johns creek is past Shelton, behind the golf club. The creek is closed waters nut you can fish the surrounding beachs and creek mouth. There is a new parking lot on the north side of the golf club

Do the waters south of there get any significant chum, like maybe the Elochoman River area?

Don't know bout the Elochoman, but that's getting close to the Southern end of their range. There are chums in Oregon's Miami and Kilchis rivers, but I don’t think they go much further south.

They do range to north of the Arctic Circle. I have fished them in Nome. and Kotzebue.

you mean i can park at the golf course instead of parking off highway 3 and walking a mile to the fishing like i always have?
