I fished it and caught 1 with corky and yarn. Many people hooking into them yesterday.

Floatuber, I wished I had my D-camera when I saw you yesterday. Could have taken a pix of your first salmon. That was your first wasn't it?

Carl, wanna hook up for some fishing Sunday?

Sure. When and where (do I have to ask?)?

REPORT:

A good buddy of mine is STILL catching nice silvers down by S. 112th St. at low tide. He has been pitching eggs with good success. Seems as though the indians have reduced their netting effort this week.

I was going to go this afternoon, but I cannot find anyone to go with me I don't think it is very wise for a girl to go down by the river by herself. I need to meet some more fishermen, so I can have partners. Anyone know of any type of clubs or something that meet in the Renton/Eastside/Southend?

Goodluck to everyone this weekend.

Just had two reports phoned in. Overall slow in the upper section and the fish seem to be on the dark side? One of my partners picked up and moved locations and nailed a 10-12 lb crome summer run hen.
Fish chick- there is a puget sound anglers club meeting on the 2nd wendsday of the month in kenndydale at 7pm. I forget the name of the hall but if you take the kenneydale exit and go east past the gas station apx 1/2 to 3/4 of a mile you will see it on the left before you make the turn in the road.

My buddy, who has been getting fish down a S.112th St., got three more today (2 jacks 1 adult).

He has now passed me in the catch record card race.

Fishin Chick, this forum is "club" enough for me. If you, or anyone else, would like someone to fish/show you the Green let me know. Drop me an email.

Carl,

I wish you had your camera too. I ended up grabbing the one from my office and have pictures a day later in my kitchen. Just isn't the same as at the river. And yes it was my first salmon. I was excited. Quite an experience.

I don't have access to add pics to this forum and since you saw it at the river I won't send them to you. They aren't the greatest.

Go ahead and send them to me. If you like I can post them in this Forum for you. Geezzzz, this is your first salmon, that is note worthy. I would be showing it off to everyone!

Well I will be hitting the green hard for the next 3 days. If you see a young man wearing a K2 backpack thats me. Stop and say hi. Have a great weekend fishing.

Easy - the way you catch and post you show yours to everyone......

Looking forwars to this Sunday. Let's knock em dead.....bonk!

Busy, now that I read my own post, I see there needs to be some clarification on my part. I am refering to, if I were Floatuber and I just caught my first salmon I would be posting pictures all over the place.

Like this!

Floatubers' First Salmon

Oh ya, Floatuber, after I saw you today I moved a little downstream and ran into Berkley Boy75. Good to have met you BB75!

I changed my gear to a Daredevil spoon with a pink Gammi hook and had two fish on, didn't land them though.

Thanks Carl. Had a great time this morning. Crappy pics already sent to you.

got down there at dark this morning. Withing an hour I had successfully limited out. And I am a beginner. I bought some stuff last night. Hooks, rubber glob of egg, bead, and yarn. Bright red. It was beginning to lighten up and bam bam. FIsh on. But after about 8:30 you could make your bait spread the salmon sea. My wife couldn't get her stuff infront of a fish after light for nothing.

Like I said I am new and I think I was lucky but I would say get there right at legal time and ater about an hour or two later leave. The fish definitely switched behaviors early and wouldn't take anything.

Just my .02 but I am new and who know.

By the way the warden that checked me on Wednesday was down there again today with a backpack and rod. She would throw a cast and then walk up and down. She checked and watched me "LEGAL" but she was incogneto so most poeple didn't know what she was. Hopefully they can clear a few ****heads out of there.

Gamies going undercover???? Cool! Now maybe we can get some results. You got any more of those daredevil spoons Easy? I was thinking of giving them a try.

Newbie - send me an e-mail of the type of eggs you were using. If they are the ones I think they are I may have some and try them out.

Well I was planning on fishing Highway 18, but I've just been hearing a lot of horror stories about all the snagging and when I drove by it at around 6 30 it was full of cars, so I opted to fish somewhere else. I did well too, got 2 fish. A pretty big 7 pound hen and the tiniest silver I've ever caught, a 1-2 pound buck. The Hen had some color but the jack was chrome bright. Both fish on a number 4 green vibrax. Good luck

Ya Busy, I have a bunch of those Daredevil spoons. Flutter, flutter, flutter. Vibrax's work too down at Hwy 18? Hmmmm....gonna have to try them out also.

Still a fair number of silvers in the Tukwila area. Lots of jumping and rolling fish, but many are showing color. I've got no clue why they are so lock-jawed this year. The single fish per trip my son and I have been averaging is barely keepin' us in eggs and eats. Today's fish was a bright jack that fell for drifted eggs and a mini-marshmallow. Only other silver we saw landed was caught by a plunker.

The Green has been real tempermental this year. You can fish for several hours and get no bites then all of a sudden BAM! everyone is catching fish then nothing again. I think the low water conditions are really messing up the bite.
