Northwest Fishing Reports

Hey guys, so this will be my first year of fishing the Puyallup for Kings. The only other River type fishing i have ever done is the Minter Creek Combat fishing for Chum. So i could use all the tips or pointers i could get, like good spots, types of lures, colors of yarn/corky. Anything would be great! Thanks!

i usually fish off of levee road and throw orange corkies and sometimes some yarn.

Thanks! also what is the bag limit for kings?

2 a day and they got to be hatchery

Starting tomorrow it will be open above Freeman rd to the mouth of the Carbon. good luck

I'll be down there, hopefully I see some fish.

Ok Thank you! The run wont start getting good for another couple weeks though right?

starts offdabat last yr opener.gotum on my lunchbreak puy 7 min from work

heard tell that they are already seeing some at the hatchery. I havent checked it myself so take it for whats its worth. I plan on hitting it bright and early tomorrow.

Wow! Thats a good lookin fish!

Wish i didnt have football practice in the morning or i would be there to!

bring mideum heavy gear cuz rivers high/fast ,dont mess around with light gear youll regret it.

So eggs probably won't work too great then? I'll probably just stick to cork/yarn and maybe toss a blue fox a few times.

How many pound test is medium heavy? Right now my rod real set up is a 8 1/2 ft ugly stick with a Pflueger real 15lbs test is that strong enough?

I plan on throwing some big flashy hardware. But will be taking eggs just in case I find a nice deep pocket.

Ok! Thanks!
