Puget Sound Fishing Report: Coho, Chum, and Coastal Cutthroat on the Bite
For November 29, 2024, in the Puget Sound area around Seattle, here’s a detailed fishing report:
Today, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 48°F and a low of 38°F. Sunrise is at 7:30 AM, and sunset will be at 4:15 PM. Tides are crucial for fishing in Puget Sound; today’s high tide is at 9:17 AM with a height of 12.8 feet, and the low tide is at 3:04 PM with a height of 4.9 feet.
Yesterday’s fishing activity was moderate, with several anglers reporting catches of coho and chum salmon. According to creel reports, areas like South Puget Sound, particularly around Kennedy Creek and McLane Creek, saw some action. Anglers caught a few coho salmon, with an average of about 2 coho per 3 anglers interviewed[2].
For coho and chum salmon, the best lures to use are typically spoons like the Luhr-Jensen Krocodile or the Acme Kastmaster. Bait-wise, herring and anchovies are always good choices, especially when used with a downrigger to get to the right depths.
If you’re targeting sea run coastal cutthroat trout, which are also active this time of year, try using small jigs or fly fishing with streamers. These fish can be found in the shallower waters of the Sound.
Hot spots for today include the Kennedy Creek area in South Puget Sound and the Hoodsport Shore in Hood Canal. Both of these locations have been known for good coho and chum salmon fishing during this time of year. Additionally, the Duwamish River, which has seen some chum salmon activity recently, could be worth a visit[3].
Remember to check the latest emergency rules and fish counts before you head out, and always be mindful of the weather and water conditions. Good luck on the water
