Snoqualmie has a lot of sloughs and such.........................might of caught a few out of them........................until the floods and they got washed out......................then after a year back to catching small fish.........................hhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm ..................................... bet those fish might of ended up in river during flooding.

I know their in the Snohomish. I caught about a 10" largie near the mouth of Ebey where it dumps into the Snohomish on a pink jig Pink Salmon fishing about 6 years ago. When I was Pink fishing last year along Lowell Rd. I would bring a spinner bait and on the way home I'd stop by some of the small ponds and catch as many largies as I wanted. Although the majority were small, there are some decent ones. I know for a fact those fish end up in the Snohomish. And there are hundreds of these ponds along the river.

I've never heard of bass or any spiny rays in the Puyallup but their are a few sloughs in the downtown Puyallup
area that are loaded with thick vegetation such as downed logs and lillypads. I was back here last year and saw plenty
of activity(top water) Maybe one of these days I'll check it out but casting may be a bit difficult with so many over hanging trees. I will be doing some scouting and fishing on the Chehalis
