Report is for thanksgiving morning. I went to the Puyallup first right at first light. The water looked good, but no one was catching any. It was 26 degrees when I was there. I didn't have much time so I left and went to the carbon. I fished below the treatment plant in a couple new holes that formed from the high water. In the second hole I hooked and landed one fish. And was done at 840. I caught it twitching jigs.

On Tuesday the 24th, I walked up to the hatchery to see if there were any good holes from the high water. The only good hole is right were the trail hits the bank. I caught one coho about 3 lbs up there. Down farther, I caught 2 more coho about 3 and 5 # also. All fish were caught twitching. I did fish bobber and jig but no bites. If all pics post there will be a pic of a cutthroat from a couple weeks ago. Sorry for late post. I think the carbon is closed now but the Puyallup is still open for coho. Catch and release on carbon.

I usually try yo get to the Carbon on thanksgiving break but decided to try lake WA for cutts

There is nothing like fishing the ever changing Carbon river in November after a week of hard rain. No people & usually a fish or 2 hiding in spots people are to lazy to walk into.

I have been very successful in past years fishing late in the season on the Carbon for silvers, makes me sad that i missed it.

Nice fish Piranha.
