Warm water on northeast wind has again driven the feeding fish out to 125 feet and down 80 to 100 down. Eight to twelve pound Chinooks are plentiful with an occasional Lake Trout and Rainbow. The big 20 pound Chinooks are coming in with some action from 55 feet to the inner harbor.
Warm water has driven the fish way out or way down. We’re seeing great Rainbow Trout action with fish to 12 pounds and 18 pound kings and a few Lake Trout.
