If you are looking for others to post pic you might be waiting for a while. With all the closures still in effect in the puget sound not many are out chasing chrome unless of course you're fishing coastal rivers or Columbia Tribs

A lot of us are willing to drive but finding time between kids, work and family can make things more difficult for some us.
Either way im sure some of us wouldnt mind if you shared some of your pics of recent catches on the notorious notellum river!! I hear monster come out of there! 😁🐟
