Northwest Fishing Reports

Dad and I are talking about doing a little deer hunting this year down by Raymond and possibly throwing in a line at North River/Smith creek. There is little to no information on this system anywhere on fishing. All I found was it gets a handfull of Coho. Dad said, he remembers fishing there successfully as a small child with his Grandfather but doesn't know much past that. Has anyone floated, motored, or bank fished North River and/or Smith Creek? Is there any fishing anymore? Anything would be helpful because again, there is nothing online. Not even one fishing report here. I don't know if we will have a chance to scout it before hunting season or if we will even have a chance fish while we are there but if there is a chance I will bring my small boat. Thanks for any input!

Don't all reply at once! Sheesh! cricket, cricket.......I know 30 yrs ago my grandfather fished here and there is still a boat launch according to WDFW website.

I used to fish the North when I went out there camping. I've caught sturgeon from the tide flats. It doesn't open for Coho until September, but it does have a nice run to fish for. The kings run big down there as well.

Thanks Nate. Deer season opens up in October so we should be good. Looking forward to checking it out!

Ive been kicking around the idea of fishing that Smith creek also....I deer hunted that area last year.....Sorriest deer hunting Ive ever seen
