On Saturday I had to drop a kid off in Grand Mound for the day so instead of driving back and forth from Skagit County I decided to spend the day exploring the area and pestering the local fish population. So maps, WDFW regs and information on all the local rivers in hand I headed out. After extensive scouting around I ended up fishing The Willapa, Chehalis and Skookumchuck Rivers (see respective reports).
After success fishing both the Willapa River and Chehalis River at Rainbow Falls I fished the Skookumchuck River for about an hour. Using my typical corky/yarn combo I was able to hook a very red 10 pound coho. After he was safely swimming away I found my way back to the car and headed back to Grand Mound to pick up child and head home.
