Head to eastside lakes for trout, Puget Sound for blackmouth
Posted by glock on Monday, February 26, 2007 (04:12:36) (7986 reads)
As spring approaches, winter has loosened its grip on much of the state. With calmer conditions in Puget Sound and thawing lakes east of the Cascades, Washingtonians have good reason to head outside and enjoy the outdoors.
In eastern Washington, the arrival of warmer weather is welcome news for most trout anglers. Dozens of lakes stocked with catchable-size hatchery trout will open for fishing March 1. Lakes included in the early opener - most in the Columbia Basin - are those that traditionally thaw first.
"Ice shouldn't be an issue for anglers, since the weather is warming up quickly here in the southeast part of the state," said Glen Mendel, a Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) fish biologist stationed in Dayton. "However, soft roads may affect where and when the tanker trucks can move fish."
West of the Cascades, blackmouth fishing in Puget Sound is heating up along with the weather. Anglers have their pick of a several marine areas currently open for hatchery chinook salmon, with another - Marine Area 13 (South Puget Sound) - opening March 1.
Meanwhile, fishery managers have tentatively scheduled a razor clam dig March 16-18 on evening tides at several ocean beaches. For details on the proposed dig, see the South Sound/Olympic Peninsula regional summary below.
Recent rains, followed by heavy flows have made steelhead fishing hit-and-miss in a number of rivers on the Olympic Peninsula and along the Columbia River. An increasing proportion of steelhead now entering western Washington rivers are wild fish, so anglers should make sure they know the rules for handling them before they cast a lure. Rules for retaining wild steelhead are noted on page 29 of the Fishing in Washington pamphlet (http://wdfw.wa.gov/fish/regs/fishregs.htm).

Wynoochee January 2007 Hot and Cold
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, February 22, 2007 (20:03:27) (8710 reads)
I've had the ability of getting on the Wynoochee River a few times this year. January 1st was as good as it gets. Tough weather in the morning, having to pump the driftboat out, then as the Wynoochee is know for 1200 NOON the bite came on. Got into a school of nice hatch... fish 12-14lbs. and it seemed that every other cast had a fish on. All Chrome bright/ 3 bucks/1 hen. We limited out in about 20 minutes and pushed water and got off by 2pm.
I was back on it 26th 47-50'F weather as sweet as Winter Steelheading gets, had a few bumps early in the morning, but no fish to the boat. We didn't see or hear another fish caught all day? Must be the nets in.

Western rivers
Posted by fishingtherivers on Monday, January 22, 2007 (03:28:17) (8806 reads)
Most of the northern rivers are startin to come down. The color is still kind of muddy hopefully this cold and no rain well bring them back in shape.
Its been a tough season on late silvers.
There are some steelhead being caught but they are few and far between.. I have had reports on the northern part of the stilli that its pickin up.

Weekender Update November 29 - December 12, 2006

Fishing a great gift idea for the holiday season
With a variety of new recreational opportunities on the horizon, outdoor enthusiasts have plenty to celebrate this season.
Razor clams, for example. Four beaches - Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks, and Kalaloch - will open for razor clam digging Dec. 2 and 3 between noon and midnight each day. Twin Harbors will also be open for a third day of digging from noon to midnight Dec. 4. Copalis Beach will remain closed to digging due to an insufficient number of clams.
Meanwhile, winter-run hatchery steelhead have been moving into dozens of rivers in western Washington, setting the stage for one of the Pacific Northwest's most popular fisheries. "Right now, the focus is still on late-run coho, but steelhead are right behind them," said David Low, a fish biologist for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW).
