Heading into prime time!!

Its that time of year when the rules start to change for our King salmon as they begin to stage for their fall spawning run. Water temps mean a little less, and their appetites start to change as they become more aggressive at times and more moody at others. The best King bites are at first and last light, they can be short but sweet with multiple hookups and controlled or not so controlled chaos on the boat. The fish are running large and the waters are cool, making the fish hard to handle at the back of the boat at times. We are still seeing a good number of coho, steelhead and a few lake trout mixing in as well…..in short the fishing has been good and its time to lock in your charter to take advantage of this seasons prime fishing.

Hot baits have been black flashers with moo moo meat rigs first thing, then chrome based flashers with brighter colors with either meat rigs or green crinkle flies.

My best plug has been a ace high green splatter back, best spoons have been oranges up high, and glows or dolphin patterns deeper in the water column.

Give us a call or text to get more info or to lock in a charter with us.
