Puget Sound -
Salmon
20 lb chinook,
Dalco Point, AugustThe salmon begin their spawning runs in the
spring and early summer. The salmon include huge chinook,
energetic coho, chum, pink, and sockeye.
The chinook is
a mighty fish that will test a fisherman and his equipment.
They will range from 8 to 25 pounds, but a few lucky anglers
will have a chance to catch a large fish in excess of 35
pounds. The coho is smaller than the chinook, but some
fisherman prefer their acrobatics and eating qualities. Coho
will range from 6 pounds to over 20 pounds.
 We fish from an open 22' Willie Asaltor
powerboat and utilize downriggers, mooching tackle, live and
artificial bait. We use only the finest of equipment,
including G-Loomis and Talon fishing rods, Gamakatsu hooks,
Shimano and Ambassadeur reels, and Izor line. Of course if
you're more comfortable with your own gear, bring it
along.
Salmon fishing trips are a great way for the
whole family to get together and and enjoy the sun and sea.
For those hot, sunny days (yes, we have a few of those days in
Washington!) be sure to bring along your sun glasses and sun
screen.
Reserve your fishing dates as early as possible
because prime dates, especially week-end trips, book early.
