Fished the Snohomish east bank beach area at Hwy 522 both Saturday & Sunday. Plenty folks fishing, only a few catchin on Saturday plunking sand shrimp with great success. Went Sunday with the same plunking rig the successor used, but still had no luck. Even fished their same spot. Tossed pink jigs, spoons, dick nites, etc. Guess the pinks aren't biting any longer. Sure was a lot jumping around. Any thoughts on how to catch these this late in the season?

LOL, goin_postal.
My theory is that they bite more on cloudy, rainy days, like TODAY.

Goin_postal, flossing is illegal. Do not promote your illegal activities on this site.

Don't know much about flossing, however; catching silvers would be better than pinks. Any suggestions for this coming weekend? Snohomish river shoujld have a better flow soon with all the rain.

Flossing is much like cleaning the salmon's teeth with your fish line as you would floss your own teeth. The sticker comes with the sharp hook on the end of your fish line that may accidentally stick onto the outside of the poor salmon's head. Of course when that happens, you would gently remove the hook and release the fish -- and apologize to your finned friend for the painful stab in the cheek. lol := )

flossing is not illegal if it hooked in the mouth which happens about half the time if there is some flow. The rip of the rod is not necessary either, just lift up lightly and if the corky is in the mouth you will feel the bite.
