Stilliguamish?

Post by SilverSlayer » Mon Dec 30, 2013 8:31 pm

I am heading South from Vancouver BC on Wednesday and thinking about stopping off at the Stiily with my spinning gear. Are there any steelhead in that river? Also interested in some good bank fishing spots. Any help is much appreciated because I have never fished the stilly. Thanks in advance.

You can actually fish for coho as well tomorrow... Last day. You might find them around silvana. If not nort fork of the stilly has a hatch run but it's been pretty slow this year. Drive the highway out towards darrington and you will find some pull outs.

This is good to know, recently bought a house on the stilly near I5, need to get on these fish and learn the ropes....

Slow going on the stilly. Silvers are long gone and steel is hard to find in that river.

I have a hole on the stilly that has been a sure shot never fail for years. Fished it twice this year and hooked a rotten chum. Where are the fish?

Fish are late everywhere. Best bet is the coastal rivers
