10/9/2016 1:44:00 PMFor sure chwong will do. I certainly wont fish washington this year. When (if) coho runs return to near normal i may consider fishing the snohomish/skykomish again. I do love that river..
If you ever feel the need to explore up here, let me know.

I fished Snohomish this week and last week and it was very slow. The Smack Talk hole wasn't producing either. I even have tried some different locations also. Good Luck to you.

10/9/2016 4:48:00 PMThis river im fishing for chum is just getting good, 2 weeks from now should be peak. Apparantly landing 20-40 fish per day is the norm. Ive had lots of people tell me that landing 7 chum in a morning is slow fishing and that in 2 weeks the real run will show up lol.
