I tried some fishing at the Mosseyrock Dam fishing area, off of Highway 12. It was overcast and windy. The fishing calendar rated it a Fair day. I got there at 10:30 in the morning. I counted four other people fishing at various times, while I there. I caught my limit of silver salmon (land-locked Coho.) I was using shrimp or worms or a worm/shrimp combo for bait. They all worked about the same. I was fishing about 5 feet down. The bite was pretty consistent. Lots of fun, if you don't mind getting a little cold.

Were you fishing from shore?

Yes, from shore. FYI, if you have not been there; it is about half way between Mosseyrock and Morton, on Highway 12. It's well marked, with a big sign. There is a paved parking lot, with some Porta Potties. The lake level is low this time of year. There's a concrete walkway and stairs you can take to walk down to the water.

Think what you like, but what is in Riffe Lake according to the Washington Department of Fishing and Wildlife is landlocked Coho. That's what Tacoma Power stocked it with years ago. Proper terminology is important.
