if you're fishing Saturday, you'll want to fish Duwamish. The natives pull the nets the day before. It's tidal water, best to go at the outgoing and part of incoming tides. Slack tides can be tough. Check out the 112th Street Pedestrian Bridge in Tukwila. Otherwise you'll need to be in Green from Kent to Auburn. Check out the reports, people have been posting their spot. Good Luck.

Spinners and eggs. #3 or #4 spinners, work it low and slow. Drifting/floating eggs.

You might want to check the regulations for bait restrictions if you're fishing between 277th and the Hwy 18 bridge. I'm pretty sure bait is restricted until after October 15th.

Jobshopper's right, no bait up there yet. The silvers should be at Auburn and Kent right now, I fish the lower Green and it's been really quiet this week.

If you hit the Stilly two well known spots that are both producing fish right now are down by the White Church in Silvana and Haler Park up near Arlington. Also, there is a good spot under the I-5 overpass, get off the Arlington exit (if heading north) take a left and go over the bridge then take a right after the gas station, follow that road all the way down under I-5 and hike in. There is also access along Dike Rd off of the Hwy.

Good luck this weekend, let us know how you do.
