Puget Sound Fishing Forecast - Coho Salmon Abundant, Ideal Conditions for October Anglers
As of October 1, 2024, the fishing scene in the Puget Sound, particularly around Seattle, is looking promising. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Tidal Report
Today, the tides are moderate, with a high tide at around 8:47 AM and a low tide at 3:04 PM. These tides should provide good conditions for fishing, especially during the changing tides when fish are more active.
### Weather
The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 62°F and a low of 50°F. Light winds will be blowing at about 5 mph, making it a comfortable day to be out on the water.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:04 AM, and sunset will be at 6:27 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.
### Fish Activity
September has been excellent for coho salmon, and this trend is expected to continue into October. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a good number of coho salmon, especially in areas like Admiralty Inlet and the Seattle-Bremerton area. Chinook salmon are less abundant now, as the season for retaining them has largely closed, but you might still catch some hatchery coho.
### Types and Amounts of Fish
In the Puget Sound, particularly in Marine Area 10, anglers have been catching coho salmon with a limit of two fish per day. There have been reports of catching up to 4-6 coho per boat in some areas.
### Best Lures and Bait
For coho salmon, small spinners, jigs, and flies are highly effective. Using lures that mimic baitfish, such as spoons or plugs, can also yield good results. If you prefer bait, using herring or anchovies can attract coho and other salmon species.
### Hot Spots
- **Admiralty Inlet**: This area has been producing a good number of coho salmon, especially around the Possession Bar.
- **Seattle-Bremerton Area**: Places like the Armeni Public Ramp and Point Defiance Public Ramp have seen consistent catches of coho salmon.
- **Skagit River**: As the coho run continues, the Skagit River is expected to be a hot spot, especially in the sections that opened for coho fishing in September.
Make sure to check the latest fishing regulations and any special rules or gear restrictions before you head out, as these can change to protect wild species. Enjoy your day on the water
