Went to the Skokomish river for the first time on tuesday. It was a nice day, about 80 degrees by the time I left at 12:00pm. Fishing was slow unless you were in what I heard was called the "meat hole." I didn't want to combat people fishing from both sides of the shore for one slot, so I fished in a small hole just up from there. I caught one king which took me for a nice run=). Lucky for me some nice guy offered to net it for me. The natives have nets up around the 106 bridge, but they come out sometime this week. I noticed salmon reports never seem to have pictures attatched so I took one of my catch. Not the biggest king but big enough and tasted great=). Hope to be on the puyallup soon!

Hey Mikon I went for a drive over there today ,Thur. the water was clear and in this part of the river witch is right at the mouth they are using egg clusters and a float the water is moving slower here. if you go up river above the Hwy 106 bridge you use corky and yarn. I dont now the colors. I stopped at the fish hatchery and asked questions and he said if he was fishing he would go down to the lower part by the mouth. I didn't see any landed today a few were lost. and they have started turning color but seen a few crome ones on the hook and jumping
