OUTLOOK
We are in for mixed weather this week with some rain today and then a mix of sun, light rain, and cloud over the weekend. When we see this kind of mixed mild weather the good news is the marine wind forecast is usually pretty good. Winds should be variable to 15kts and the overcast skies can make for excellent coho fishing. We have big high tides in the mornings. This is not great for the beach anglers but for the saltwater fleet, fishing a high slack first thing in the morning can be very productive.
The big news this week is the Vedder and Skagit River reports. A number of the boys from the shop hit the Skagit this weekend. Matt has all the details in the Skagit report and though they didn’t fish the Vedder, they got a chance to see it on their way up and it looked in pretty good shape. More details are in this week’s report.
Interior lakes are still fishing well and the mild temperatures have been a good thing. We are hearing solid reports from both directions and have more details in the lake section.
Last but not least, the saltwater fishing continues to be strong. Chinook are everywhere and coho fishing is excellent if you can find the fish. Check out Jason’s Saltwater section at the end of the report for all the details.
